The suspected MS-13 gang member accused of fatally shooting a member of a rival gang in broad daylight on a New York City subway platform is a Salvadoran national who is in the U.S. illegally, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency told Fox News on Tuesday. ICE said it had lodged an immigration detainer so that they could be contacted prior to his release. Police say the subway incident unfolded around noon Sunday when the victim and two men started arguing on a train. At least six shots were then heard, sending the bystanders on the subway platform scurrying for safety. The footage ends with the man identified as the shooter escaping down the steps of the now-empty platform as the victim lays motionless nearby.
