An Alvarado, Texas police officer was shot and wounded in the neck late Friday night in an apparent ambush attack by an armed group outside the ICE Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, located just south of Dallas-Fort Worth.

Several suspects are reported in custody. The officer was taken to a local hospital, was treated and released.

The officer was apparently “ambushed during a protest-related incident” according to the Texas Municipal Police Association:

An Alvarado officer was shot this morning (sic)—possibly ambushed during a protest-related incident near a federal detention facility. Our member was airlifted. Stable condition. TMPA Attorney Lance Wyatt responded to be with our member. A daily reminder: Every shift carries risk. This job is never routine. We stand with our member and every Texas cop who runs toward danger.

Excerpt from CBS News report:

Just before 11 p.m., the Alvarado Police Department said it was called to the 1200 block of Sunflower Lane, outside the ICE Prairieland Detention Facility, on a report of a suspicious person. When officers arrived, they saw a person who appeared to be carrying a firearm, according to a news release.

Alvarado police said that when one of the first responding officers tried to engage with the person, an unknown number of suspects opened fire. At least one bullet struck an officer in the neck, police said.

The injured officer was flown from the scene to a Fort Worth hospital, was treated and later released, Alvarado police said.

…A federal law enforcement source told CBS News Saturday that local police arrested eight people. The official said some of those apprehended were wearing body armor.

The source told CBS News that early reports indicate that more than a dozen masked individuals dressed in black arrived at the Prairieland ICE detention facility late Friday night and vandalized vehicles and security cameras in the parking lot.

The individuals launched fireworks in an apparent effort to lure law enforcement, the source said.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche posted a statement on X Saturday about the attack on the ICE Prairieland Detention Center and the ongoing Antifa attacks on the ICE detention center in Portland, Oregon:

“We are closely monitoring the attacks on DHS detention facilities in Prairieland, TX, and Portland, OR, and are coordinating with the USAOs and our law enforcement partners. The Department has zero tolerance for assaults on federal officers or property and will bring the full weight of the law against those responsible.”
