It happened on January 14th in Minneapolis.

DHS initially said an officer fired a shot to save his life.

The agency said he was being ambushed and attacked by three immigrants with a snow shovel and a broom handle during a targeted traffic stop.

Julio Cesar Sosa Celis, the subject of the traffic stop, was shot in the leg.

But now DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin says the federal agents involved have been placed on administrative leave.

This after a joint review by ICE and the Department of Justice found they appear to have lied in their sworn testimonies of the incident.

McLaughlin says the officers could be fired or prosecuted for any violations.

The eviction moratorium is aimed at helping immigrants who have not gone to work because they fear detention by federal agents.

Governor Walz has not issued an eviction moratorium, and his office has not provided a response as to whether he intends to do so.

In response, a growing number of community groups have popped up to help people pay their rent.

Alexandria Gomez's group has helped about 170 families by raising more than $300,000.

She says this is another way to fight the federal government's immigration crackdown in their state.
