In response to a Texas police officer being shot outside a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention facility, the Trump administration is implementing a “zero tolerance” policy towards attacks on law enforcement personnel.

The message came after similar incidents in other cities amid backlash against President Donald Trump’s immigration enforcement agency. 

An Alvarado, Texas, police officer was shot Friday night near the Prairieland Detention Facility, authorities said.

In Alvarado, located near Fort Worth, authorities detained multiple suspects following an incident where an officer from the Alvarado Police Department was shot at approximately 11 p.m. as he was reacting to reports of suspicious activity, according to FOX Dallas.

When the officer tried making contact with the person, shots were fired and the officer was struck in the neck. 

The officer was flown to a Fort Worth hospital for treatment and was later released.

Several armed suspects fled but were arrested with the help of the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office and other authorities, the news station reported.
