From WASHINGTON EXAMINER: Four suspects were arrested for allegedly using “improvised devices” to damage Border Patrol vehicles during operations in Los Angeles.
In a post on X, U.S. Border Patrol El Centro Sector Chief Patrol Agent Gregory K. Bovino shared an image of one of the devices in question, which appeared to be a rubber or metal tube with two nails protruding from it. The device had been embedded in an armored vehicle’s wheel. The four suspects now face felony charges.
“Just moments ago in Van Nuys during federal immigration law enforcement operations, 3 subjects attempted to impede & obstruct our efforts, using improvised devices aimed at disabling our vehicles. All three were arrested & now face felony charges,” Bovino said, later adding that a fourth suspect had been arrested.
“Everyone who assaults, impedes, or obstructs federal law enforcement operations will be arrested…don’t do it, it’s a felony charge!” he added, in response to a comment in support of the arrests.
