Austin Police Chief Lisa Davis says new policy will reflect the fact that officers have greater leeway over when to report people to ICE when they are suspected of civil immigration violations.

A 54-second clip credited to local TV station KTBC and posted by Fox News shows officers in helmets and tactical vests using their bicycles as rolling barricades to press protesters back. In the video, at least three people appear to be taken into custody while bystanders shout and film the scene, all of it unfolding in under a minute.

The program aims to give officers a chance to communicate with — and learn from — people filing complaints against them.

AUSTIN, Texas (KWTX) — Austin police say a 19-year-old man was shot to death at a downtown hotel after he wrecked a borrowed car. Officers and Austin-Travis County Emergency Medical Services responded about 6:55 a.m. Jan. 5 to a report of a gunshot at the Cambria Hotel at 68 East Avenue.

Austin police outlined how a new, rapidly unfolding DNA and ballistics evidence trail led them to declare a dead man as the likely perpetrator in the killing of four teenage girls at an Austin yogurt shop in 1991.
