A federal judge's decision is pending on whether to release a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent from custody. The agent is charged with assault and falsely reporting a crime related to a January incident. A man was struck in the leg after the agent fired a gun through a door.

Authorities in another state have been seeking extradition since the agent's arrest. The agent has been held in custody for nearly 90 days, which is the maximum detention period allowed under Texas law. If the judge does not intervene, the agent could be released.

Further details about the case are available.
