Good morning, Stockton.
A federal ruling in a closely watched case that has drawn regional attention has left a man shot by ICE agents sitting in jail.
A man shot by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers during a traffic stop earlier this month will remain in custody as he awaits trial. Lillian Perlmutter reports that a U.S. District Court judge denied a request for his release on bond, with his public defender arguing he posed no flight risk because of injuries from the shooting. The case continues to raise questions about the circumstances that led to the use of force and what comes next in federal court.
Elsewhere, cherry growers are watching this week’s storm as they hope for a stronger harvest after some difficult seasons. The San Joaquin Regional Transit District has named an interim CEO amid questions about the man’s past role with Stockton Unified. And across Stockton, other community stories are taking shape, from a large Sikh festival drawing thousands to reflections on how people define the places they call home.
Thank you for reading and for staying connected to Stockton.
