David Brouillette, an ICE officer with a history of mental health issues, was identified as the agent who shot and killed Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero.

The administration announced that David Brouillette, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer, was the agent responsible for the fatal shooting of Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero in Biddeford, Maine. The incident occurred on Monday when the 25-year-old Colombian national, who was in the country illegally, attempted to flee his vehicle during a routine stop. Reports from relatives revealed that David Brouillette struggled with serious mental health issues and violent behavior since childhood, leading lawmakers to question the vetting process for the 12,000 new agents hired to support the mass deportation agenda. Democratic leaders criticized the administration for rushing the hiring process without ensuring agents were fit to carry firearms. Meanwhile, the administration overturned a temporary pause on vehicle stops, with President Trump stating that traffic stops remain an essential tool for crime-fighting. In response to the tragedy, Maine residents and immigrant groups are organizing a "National Day of Action" to demand a transparent investigation and accountability for the officer's actions.
