It looks like that video is from a different incident.
According to the Chicago Tribune, Martinez was driving a silver Nissan Rogue (not a truck and not a Chevy).

In the video you linked, it looks like a Chevy is ramming the ICE truck.
Note: If you watch the video to the end you can see that the police lights are coming from the truck itself.
His lawyers from the Institute for Justice are currently looking for any other U.S. Citizens who have been detained or questioned by ICE while working.

Hi everyone,
I work with the Institute for Justice, a nonprofit law firm, and we’re representing Leo Garcia Venegas (shown in the video below).
Leo, a U.S. citizen, was detained by federal agents twice while working on a construction site in Alabama. Both times, he showed valid ID — and both times, agents ignored it. These warrantless raids on private property violate the Fourth Amendment, and Leo is now suing.
We’re looking for other U.S. citizens (or people who know them) who’ve been detained or questioned by ICE while working.

Thanks! I definitely feel the same. I found it particularly wholesome to read through the comments of those that were donating here: https://www.givesendgo.com/helptheSanfordfamily
Yes, but this isn’t a fundraiser that was started by the church (or with church funding) but rather it was started and donated to by the members themselves.
No problem! Thanks for the edit.
The only video I could find of events leading up to the shooting was this one (if you want to add on to the comment): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4qBLgk9hWw
