A San Antonio man, Cody Sparks, has accused an off-duty Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent, Tim Harrison, of assaulting him after a lengthy dispute turned violent last month. The incident occurred on June 10 at Sparks’ parents’ home on the Northwest Side, where Harrison allegedly walked onto the driveway and struck Sparks.
Dispute Turns Violent
According to Sparks, Harrison had been intimidating him for about 18 months, and their relationship had turned sour. Sparks had begun recording his interactions with Harrison after Harrison spat on him. In one incident, recorded by Sparks in May 2025, Harrison challenged Sparks to fight him in the street.
The argument came weeks after Sparks was arrested at a nearby residence for tampering with evidence and drug possession. The tampering case was dismissed in February, and Sparks recently entered pretrial diversion in the drug case in hopes of completing the program and getting the charge removed from his record.
On the night of June 10, Sparks said he began recording Harrison after the man called Sparks a derogatory term and told him to “go get your mommy.” The footage shows Harrison walk onto the driveway as Sparks repeatedly tells him not to come onto the property.
Investigation Underway
San Antonio police records and cell phone camera footage show that Harrison was the first to make physical contact. Both men are heard in the recording yelling to people off camera to call 911. The door sustained structural damage, and more than a month after the incident, dried blood remains on the driveway.
An Animal Care Services report obtained by KSAT Investigates states Harrison was bitten on his leg by one of the family’s dogs and suffered four puncture wounds to his calf. Harrison was treated at the scene by paramedics, the ACS report states.
The San Antonio Police Department’s incident report states that the footage shows Harrison was the first to make physical contact. Weeks after the fight, Harrison has not been criminally charged. An SAPD spokesperson told KSAT the case remains under investigation.
