DHS, the primary source, says ICE officers arrested Haitian national Actionel Pierre in Wicomico County, Maryland, and that his criminal history includes arrests for attempted murder, two counts of assault, possession of a dangerous weapon with intent to injure, and reckless endangerment.

What we found

Supports. The DHS press release states that ICE officers arrested Actionel Pierre, a Haitian criminal illegal alien, in Wicomico County, Maryland, with a history including attempted murder, two counts of assault, possession of a dangerous weapon with intent to injure, and reckless endangerment.[1]

Supports. WGMD and WMAR report the same arrest and the same offense list, attributing it to ICE and DHS statements.[2][3]

Supports. Yahoo's repost of the ICE statements repeats the same arrest and charge list, with the same wording as the DHS release.[4]

Context. Fox4 and VINnews list fewer offenses (omitting two counts of assault or the weapons charge), which is an omission rather than a contradiction of the fuller list.[5][6]

Context. The sources describe 'arrests for' these offenses, so 'criminal history' reflects DHS's framing; none of the sources reports convictions for them.[1]
