A man fatally shot by an ICE agent in Maine on Monday was not the intended target of the arrest warrant federal agents were executing, Sen. Angus King's office said.

A man fatally shot by an ICE agent in Maine on Monday was not the intended target of the arrest warrant federal agents were executing, according to Sen. Angus King's office, marking a shift from earlier accounts that suggested he was. The change comes after the senator's office clarified its previous statement about the shooting. The ICE agent reportedly claimed the man was the intended target before opening fire on Monday morning. However, the agency later confirmed it was a mistaken identity.
