Fact Check: No evidence 4,000 people are killed yearly by undocumented immigrants

There is no evidence to suggest undocumented immigrants are responsible for 4,000 U.S. deaths every year, contrary to social media posts sharing the unsubstantiated statistic.

The social media graphic, contains statistics comparing the alleged deaths by undocumented immigrants to the number of people killed by rifles.

“Less than 500 people a year are killed by rifles… let’s ban them! Over 4,000 people a year are killed by illegals... let’s give them $2,200 a month taxpayer assistance, register them to vote in our elections and keep the border wide open to invite more of them into our country,” reads the graphic.
