On the ICE shooting in Marble Hill

“Did you hear about the ICE shooting?” I asked my friend. “Which one?” they replied. On Oct. 8, Oscar Belgal was shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent while in his car with a five-year-old, assumed to be his son, in Marble Hill. According to police, an agent fired multiple rounds into the car, striking him in the neck. The child was not physically injured. The Department of Homeland Security claims the altercation escalated when Belgal refused to leave his vehicle and struck two cars, prompting agents to fire. The armed agents approached in construction worker vests and masks, unlike recognizable law enforcement. Belgal’s lawyers have challenged the lawfulness of his arrest. With this article, I don’t intend to examine Belgal’s innocence, but rather the circumstances of his arrest and the violence he was subjected to.

Landing at JFK at 11 p.m. and joining the taxi line is a rite of passage nobody wants to repeat. LaGuardia’s pickup zones change with every construction phase, and Newark adds a tunnel, a toll and a river to the trip. The fix is booking the car before you fly, so a chauffeur is tracking your flight and the fare was agreed while you were still packing.
