Good morning, Stockton.
A case involving an ICE shooting in the Central Valley that has already raised questions has taken another turn.
A man shot by ICE agents last week has been taken from the hospital by the FBI, according to his attorney, who says his client’s condition and location are unknown. Lillian Perlmutter reports the latest twist adds to a series of conflicting accounts about the incident, leaving family members and the public waiting for clearer answers.
In other news, the Stockton City Council is set to consider whether to remove Cesar Chavez’s name from the main library, along with votes on affordable housing loans. A Stockton nurse practitioner has agreed to pay $1.4 million to settle allegations tied to illegal prescriptions. And the Stockton Kings’ season came to a close with a loss in the NBA G League Finals.
And at Delta College, a longtime entomology course is returning after more than two decades, bringing a new opportunity for students.
Thank you for reading and for staying connected to Stockton.

Man shot by ICE taken from hospital by FBI, attorney says
By Lillian Perlmutter • Stocktonia
A man shot by ICE agents last week in the Central Valley has been released from the hospital directly into FBI custody, but the future of his detention — and of the immigration enforcement effort that led to the shooting — remain unclear, his lawyer said Monday.
The abrupt hospital release and subsequent arrest of Carlos Ivan Mendoza Hernández left his family concerned for his health. “We don’t know where Carlos is or what his condition is like right now,” his attorney, Patrick Kolasinski said.
