The family of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, the Houston construction worker fatally shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer on July 7, held a public viewing Thursday as federal, state, and local investigators continued to press competing accounts of the shooting, which has drawn scrutiny of President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown.

The viewing was held at the Great Chapel at Forest Park Lawndale, with the League of United Latin American Citizens coordinating the service for the family.

Salgado Araujo, a 52-year-old Mexican national who lived in Houston for roughly 35 years, was driving his construction crew in a white van when unmarked ICE vehicles pursued him through the East End's Magnolia Park neighborhood.

The Department of Homeland Security has said the officer opened fire in self-defense after Salgado Araujo allegedly ignored commands and, according to the agency, "weaponized" the van by ramming an ICE vehicle and attempting to strike an agent.

Two of the three passengers in the van, through their attorney Hugo Balderas, have contested that account, saying no agent was ever in front of the vehicle and that the fatal shot came through a passenger-side window.

The Harris County Medical Examiner ruled the manner of death a homicide, a clinical finding that carries no criminal determination.

DHS has acknowledged Salgado was not the intended target of the operation.

Rep. Sylvia Garcia, D-Texas, said an ICE briefing indicated agents pursued the van because they believed one occupant resembled the person they were seeking.

An FBI search warrant application unsealed this week alleged an agent saw plastic bags of a "white crystal-like substance" in the van consistent with methamphetamine.

Harris County District Attorney Sean Teare on Thursday said he does not believe the material was a controlled substance and that its identity has no bearing on whether the shooting or the stop was justified.

Ruby Powers, an attorney for Salgado Araujo's brother, said the family believes the powder is a homemade electrolyte mix of granulated salt, lemon, and water that the crew used to stay hydrated in the Texas heat.

U.S. Attorney Aaron Reitz urged the public to withhold judgment, calling all findings preliminary and asking for time to allow the FBI and DHS to investigate.

The DHS Office of Inspector General, the FBI's Houston field office, the Texas Rangers, and the Harris County District Attorney are all conducting parallel reviews.

None of the agents involved were wearing body cameras, and no video of the shooting has surfaced.

The Associated Press reported that encounters with ICE have resulted in at least 10 deaths since Trump's second term began, including two in the days after Salgado Araujo was killed.

Following the Houston shooting and a second fatal ICE shooting in Maine, DHS ordered ICE officers nationwide to halt vehicle stops. Trump said Wednesday that the policy must be reversed and that agents must resume such operations.
