“If you lay a hand on a law enforcement officer, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.” – Secretary Noem
WASHINGTON – The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released video footage of the arrest of a Christian Damian Cerna-Camacho, a United States (U.S.). citizen, for allegedly assaulting a federal law enforcement officer during the Los Angeles (LA), California (CA) riots. When officers tried to make the arrest, Cerna-Camacho tried to flee.
“Homeland Security Investigations arrested Christian Damian Cerna-Camacho for punching a federal law enforcement officer,” said Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. “Our officers are facing a 413% increase in assaults against them as they put their lives on the line to arrest murders, rapists, and gang members. Secretary Noem’s message to the LA rioters is clear: you will not stop us or slow us down. ICE and our federal law enforcement partners will continue to enforce the law. And if you lay a hand on a law enforcement officer, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

Additionally, this week, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested Emiliano Garduno-Galvez—an illegal alien from Mexico—for attempted murder after he threw a Molotov cocktail at law enforcement during the LA riots.
Additionally, the Federal Bureau of Investigation issued a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of Elpidio Reyna for allegedly throwing rocks and explosives at federal officers.
