Protesters gathered outside Houston City Hall calling for an independent investigation into the death of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, saying they do not trust federal authorities to investigate the actions of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

The demonstration comes after Houston Mayor John Whitmire said the Houston Police Department would review evidence collected by the FBI following reported inconsistencies between witness accounts and ICE's description of the incident.

Protesters call for accountability Chants of "Justice for Lorenzo" echoed through downtown as community members urged city leaders to launch their own investigation instead of relying on evidence gathered by federal agencies.
