“Anyone who deliberately impedes the efforts of law enforcement agents and officers who are carrying out lawful warrants will be subject to federal prosecution, to include spending time in federal prison,” said Akil Davis, the assistant director in charge of the FBI’s Los Angeles Field Office.

“The FBI is currently seeking individuals who assaulted law enforcement officers serving federal warrants during the past two days in various parts of Los Angeles. There will be no tolerance for anyone who interferes with the law enforcement mission and, in doing so, puts law enforcement or the community in harm’s way.”
