ICE Agent in Long Beach Office Turns Violent with Gunfire

By Douglas V. Gibbs

The shooting at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in Long Beach, California was by an armed immigration agent, angry after a discussion about his job performance. A third agent saved the supervisor by firing his own weapon upon the aggressor.

The shooter, Ezequiel Garcia, was in a conversation with higher ranking Kevin Kozak when the discussion escalated, and Garcia decided to pull out his weapon and fire upon Kozak.  Kozak was hit six times, in the upper torso, legs and hands, and was later hospitalized in stable condition.

After Garcia fired, a nearby agent drew his own gun and fatally shot the attacker. The third agent, whose name was being withheld, was placed on administrative leave.
