Hernandez Remains in Custody Following ICE Shooting

United States District Court ordered Hernandez to stay in custody, denying $50k bond due to flight risk.
ICE agents shot Hernandez seven times during a stop in Patterson, CA, after he reversed his vehicle toward an officer.
Attorney Kolasinski argued Hernandez panicked, citing his 2019 acquittal of murder in El Salvador.
U.S. Attorney Hitt cited cocaine test, gang tattoos, and 2010 Salvadorian extortion conviction for continued detention.
Hernandez is undergoing surgeries for gunshot wounds with a May 5 hearing.
