A Young Man's Tragic End on a Virginia Highway

In a heartbreaking turn of events, a 24-year-old man from Honduras lost his life on a Virginia highway. Josué Castro Rivera was trying to escape from immigration agents when a car hit him. He was on his way to work in gardening when this happened. His brother, Henry Castro, shared that Josué was trying to support his family back in Honduras. The incident happened on a Thursday morning. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers stopped Josué's car. They tried to detain him and three others in the car. Josué ran away and tried to cross the highway. That's when a car hit him. He died at the scene. Josué had been in the United States for four years. He was working hard to send money back home. His brother described him as a kind person. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said that Josué resisted arrest and ran away. They also said that the operation was targeted and based on intelligence. There are some confusing details. Federal authorities and state police called him Jose, but his family says his name is Josué. The crash is still being investigated. Josué's brother believes his death was unfair. He is raising money to send Josué's body back to Honduras for burial. This is not the first time something like this has happened. Recently, there have been other deaths during immigration operations. In Chicago and California, three other immigrants died in similar incidents. These events have led to protests and calls for investigations. People are questioning the Trump administration's handling of these situations. In one case, a Mexican man was shot and killed by federal immigration agents during a traffic stop. Initially, DHS said an officer was seriously injured. But body camera footage showed the officer was fine. This has raised more questions about the accuracy of the initial reports.
