Local media reports Castro-Mata was stopped by law enforcement for driving a scooter the wrong way down a one-way street before ditching the two-wheeled vehicle and running from the cops.
During the chase, the illegal migrant began shooting at the officers, striking two of them before also being shot.
One officer was hit in the chest but thankfully had on a bulletproof vest, the other cop was hit in the leg and the suspect was hit in the ankle.
All three injured individuals are recovering.
NYPD Det. Joseph Kenny told PIX11 Castro-Mata crossed into the U.S. at Eagle Pass, Texas, last July, signaling the Biden administration processed the suspect and let him into the country.
Now, the alien is being investigated by the NYPD as they suspect he may be part of a gang robbing people in the Queens area, and due to an incident where Castro-Mata was accused of “attacking a woman and stealing her credit card.”
Of course, the gun used by the illegal invader was not a legally obtained firearm, which derails left-wing gun control talking points.
