0:53Now PlayingProtests broke out in Portland, Ore., last night. Portland police say U.S. Border Patrol agents shot and wounded two people there.
According to DHS, U.S. Border Patrol agents were conducting a targeted vehicle stop in Portland when the shooting occurred. The agency said the passenger of the vehicle and target of the operation was suspected to be a Venezuelan immigrant in the U.S. illegally. They also said a Border Patrol agent feared for his safety and fired a, quote, defensive shot and the vehicle fled the scene.
In a statement, Chief of Police Bob Day asked the community to "remain calm" as they work to learn more.
The shooting took place a day after a woman was killed by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer in Minnesota. DHS also called that incident self-defense.
