The federal immigration officers are facing a criminal inquiry after new evidence surfaced contradicting their accounts after the Jan. 14 shooting of a Venezuelan man.

Todd Lyons, the acting head of Immigration and Customs Enforcement accused two federal agents of lying under oath regarding the mid-January shooting of a Venezuelan national in Minneapolis.

The disclosure from the agency's acting director came after immigration officers shot two U.S. citizens, intensifying questions about ICE officers' tactics, training and use of force.

Q: Is it true that ICE agents are financially rewarded for the number of people taken into custody? A: The Department of Homeland Security has said there is no such policy, and an immigration think tank told us it is unaware of any payments per arrest.

An internal Immigration and Customs Enforcement document in May shows that ICE told officers and agents they can forcibly enter homes of people subject to deportation without warrants signed by judges.

One Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer was injured after being hit in the head with a rock, and two Federal Protective Services officers were also injured, the department said.
