United States immigration agents were involved in a shooting incident in Maryland on Wednesday, December 24, 2025.
The incident left one man with bullet wounds and the other with minor injuries.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which oversees federal immigration officers, said Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents were carrying out an operation to target two men in the U.S. illegally in Glen Burnie, south of Baltimore.
The DHS, in a statement, said when the agents approached a van carrying the two men, the driver drove the van into agents’ vehicles, then directly at ICE officers in an attempt to run them over.

The department revealed that the agents then “defensively fired their service weapons, striking the driver,” adding that the van then wrecked between two buildings and injured the passenger.
The Anne Arundel County Police Department, which is investigating the shooting, did not immediately respond to Reuters’ request for comment.
Maryland Governor Wes Moore, a Democrat, wrote on social media that he was “aware of the ICE-involved shooting that occurred earlier today” and his office was working with local officials to learn more and provide support.
