US Homeland Security defends officers after fatal Michigan crash

The US federal government is defending its officers after a fatal car crash involving an immigrant in western Michigan last weekend, ABC News US reported. The report said the incident had prompted the government to defend the officers involved. The supplied material did not identify the officers, the agency they belonged to or the person who died.

It also did not explain how the crash happened, whether the officers’ vehicle was involved directly or what actions preceded the collision. No details were provided about the location in western Michigan, the condition of any other people involved or whether charges had been filed. The available account likewise did not describe the government’s specific argument, identify the official who made the defence or give the status of any police or federal investigation.

It establishes that the fatal crash involved an immigrant and that federal authorities are defending their officers, but provides no further verified facts.
