Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials on Wednesday announced the arrest of an illegal Venezuelan migrant convicted of assaulting a New York City police officer in Times Square.
Darwin Andres Gomez Izquiel is one of several individuals who were caught on video kicking and beating two New York City Police Department (NYPD) officers earlier this year. He reportedly smirked but did not speak during his sentencing for the crime.
ICE wrote Izquiel first entered the U.S. near the Rio Grande Valley in Texas in August of 2023. He illegally entered the country without being inspected by Border Patrol agents, the agency said. After he was given an expedited order of removal, the migrant withdrew his application for admission to the U.S. and voluntarily returned to Mexico, according to ICE.
