According to people who have seen videos that I have nor seen yer, he had a holstered gun that the ICE thugs they took away from him before they shot him. According to the DHS, he drew his gun on the agents and they were forced to shoot him in self defense. From what I can make out on the video, one of the agents was pistol whipping him and that gun went off accidentally so a couple other agents freaked out and unloaded their weapons into him while he was laying on the ground.
