Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was shot and killed on Tuesday. The man fatally shot during a traffic stop by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer in Houston this week was seemingly not the original target of the immigration enforcement operation, a Department of Homeland Security official told ABC News. The DHS official said Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, a Mexican national, "resembled the target." "After receiving a credible tip from our law enforcement partners, our officers conducted surveillance on a target's address. Weeks prior to the incident, they noted two white vans at the property," the official said. "On July 7, officers were almost at the target's address when they observed a white van with an individual who resembled the target. Officers then initiated the vehicle stop." The Harris County Medical Examiner has listed Lorenzo Salgado's death as a homicide.
