An ICE officer indicted in Harris County, Texas, turned himself in Monday, Nov. 2, and posted bond, according to the Associated Press and Houston television stations.
The charge
A Harris County grand jury indicted officer Mario Alberto Morales on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, according to AP and FOX 26. Prosecutors allege he rammed Miguel Parra Hernandez with an unmarked SUV on Oct. 10.
Court
A judge set bond at $30,000, and Morales posted it and was released, ABC13 reported. His next court appearance is Dec. 2, and his defense said it plans to seek to move the case to federal court.
What to keep in mind
An indictment is an accusation, not a finding of guilt. Morales is presumed innocent unless convicted.
