Miguel Parra-Hernandez, a 48-year-old Mexican construction worker who has lived in the U.S. for 34 years with no criminal record, was struck by an unmarked ICE SUV on October 10, 2026, while fleeing on foot through a Houston parking lot during an operation targeting Jose Mendoza-Cervantes, a man with a final removal order. Mendoza-Cervantes's family says he actually died years ago and provided a death certificate to the Harris County district attorney. Parra-Hernandez suffered a shattered ankle, a leg broken in three places, and hip injuries, has undergone two surgeries with more needed, and remains hospitalized in ICE custody without criminal charges. His attorney and FIEL Houston director Cesar Espinosa said ICE agents cut short a hospital visit and recorded the conversation before forcing them out. Harris County District Attorney Sean Teare said surveillance video contradicts ICE's claim that Parra-Hernandez ran in front of the vehicle and is investigating the officer, who has been placed on administrative leave, for possible aggravated assault; ICE has refused to cooperate or release the vehicle's data recorder. Two witnesses, including Houston business owner Luis Delfín Enríquez, were detained and moved to a detention facility before investigators could interview them, and Teare's office said it will sponsor U-visa petitions for them. Harris County Precinct 4 Commissioner Lesley Briones said she was 'horrified' and, with family and FIEL Houston, demanded Parra-Hernandez's release, video release, and an investigation.
