Federal prosecutors in Texas have charged a Venezuelan delivery driver who was shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent earlier this month with assaulting a federal officer, according to court documents unveiled Tuesday.

The Department of Homeland Security has said Garces Perez is living in the U.S. illegally after being ordered deported by an immigration judge.
