DOUGHERTY COUNTY, Ga. (WALB/Gray News) — A person was allegedly hit by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement vehicle in Dougherty County in what began as a traffic stop.According to Georgia State Patrol, the situation started when ICE agents tried to stop a van on the Liberty Expressway Thursday morning. All of the occupants were said to have exited the vehicle and were attempting to run into a nearby wooded area. Authorities said the driver of the van ended up falling in the median and became lodged under the ICE agents’ patrol car.The man’s family identified him as Edgar Cabrera Gomez. They refute the claims that Gomez was the driver.“He said he was not driving and the only reason why he was injured is that the ICE agents themselves had run him over while he was running,” a family member said.Dougherty County authorities said ICE agents are still looking for the other two people who were in the van.No further information was released from the scene.
