ARRESTED: Elpidio Reyna surrendered today at the U.S.-Mexico border to face a felony charge of assault on a federal officer for throwing rocks at passing law enforcement vehicles in Paramount on June 7.
He was taken into custody by a U.S. Border Patrol officer who was inside one of the vehicles damaged in the attack — a brave law enforcement officer who could have been killed in last month’s dangerous and reckless attack.
I thank
@FBILosAngeles
,
@CBP
, and
@USBPChiefELC
for their efforts to track down this dangerous fel*n.
To anyone who thinks they can attack federal officers and hide behind a mask or helmet, Reyna’s arrest today proves we can find and charge anyone who violates federal law. Don’t touch our officers.
Reyna will make his initial appearance in federal court this afternoon. He is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
