NYPD Releases ICE Shooting Bodycam Footage

Law enforcement officers investigate after ICE agents shot and wounded a man in the Bronx in New York on, Oct.

8, 2026. —Barry Williams–New York Daily News/Tribune News Service via Getty Images A day after a federal immigration agent shot a man in New York City , the New York Police Department released footage from one of their officers responding to the shooting.

The release came amid a growing outcry over the shooting of 28-year-old Oscar Belgal, which has prompted calls for Immigration and Customs Enforcement to immediately release body cam footage of the ICE agent involved in the shooting and for ICE to end their operations in New York City altogether.

The NYPD’s video , which did not capture the shooting itself, showed two police officers showing up to a scene where a man was sitting on the ground, with one person holding on his neck to avoid further injury.

One ICE officer, who was wearing a neon construction vest, an ICE badge and holding an assault rifle, was making a phone call and did not talk to the NYPD officers.

While responding to the scene, one NYPD officer asked if the victim should be transferred to a hospital, but ICE officers did not respond to his question.

“Are we putting him in [the police vehicle] or what?” The police officer asked.

Multiple police officers eventually lifted the person on the ground onto the police vehicle which drove to the nearest hospital.

Shortly after the shooting, social media videos taken from different angles on the scene also showed that the back window of a silver SUV was completely shattered and the front window was pierced by at least one bullet.

A child was seen taken away from the shooting scene by a plainclothes officer.

Earlier on Friday, Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said the ICE officer involved in the shooting had been equipped with a body camera and that there was footage relating to the incident.

“As the investigation moves forward, as I said, we’ll release the information,” he said.

TIME has reached out to ICE regarding when the body camera footage from the ICE officer will be released.

What’s ICE’s protocol for releasing bodycam footage? ICE’s policy requires its officers to activate cameras during routine enforcement activities, including while making arrests, executing search warrants and responding to emergencies.
