Federal Agents Targeted with Homemade Tire Spikes During LA Immigration Enforcement Operation
Federal Agents Targeted with Homemade Tire Spikes During LA Immigration Enforcement Operation

The war against America’s brave law enforcement officers is heating up. Radical activists have moved beyond angry protests and harsh words, taking dangerous steps to block police from doing their jobs. What’s even more troubling is how Democrat politicians stand side-by-side with these extremists, cheering on their lawless behavior.

In cities across America, left-wing protesters aren’t just shouting slogans anymore. They’re putting officers’ lives at risk while Democratic leaders applaud them. The latest shocking example proves just how far these radical attack dogs will go to stop immigration enforcement.

Four anti-ICE activists were arrested Tuesday after planting homemade tire spikes near federal law enforcement vehicles in Los Angeles. The dangerous devices were discovered near vehicles belonging to federal agents conducting immigration enforcement operations in the Van Nuys neighborhood.

From Breitbart:

Four anti-ICE activists were arrested after allegedly planting homemade tire deflation devices around vehicles belonging to federal law enforcement agents conducting immigration enforcement operations in the Van Nuys neighborhood of Los Angeles. The incident occurred on Tuesday afternoon…

“The attacks on law enforcement agents are dangerous and could get officers hurt or killed while they try to do their jobs.”

The suspects, identified as Jenaro-Ernesto Ayala (43), Jude Jasmine Jeannine Allard (28), Sadot Jarnica (54), and Daniel Montenegro (30), weren’t just random troublemakers. When arrested, they had several homemade tire spikes and a tote bag with the logo of the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA) – a group that actively tells people to track and report ICE operations.

Photos shared by Border Patrol show these weren’t harmless pranks. One image clearly shows a spike stabbing a federal vehicle’s tire. These weren’t protestors using free speech – they were saboteurs attacking law enforcement equipment.

The Sanctuary City Connection

This attack came just one day after another troubling incident in Los Angeles. On Monday, federal immigration officers led by Chief Bovino faced protesters while working at MacArthur Park.

Most shocking was Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass showing up in person to attack the operation. She demanded that federal agents and U.S. Marines providing security leave the area right away.

What Mayor Bass didn’t mention is that MacArthur Park is known territory controlled by the Salvadoran MS-13 gang. According to Chief Bovino, the operation targeted illegal alien gang activity, including making and selling fake IDs and immigration documents.

Standing Firm Against Obstruction

Despite the physical attacks on federal vehicles and public undermining by elected officials, Chief Bovino made it crystal clear: the dangerous words from the Los Angeles Mayor and activist groups will not stop immigration enforcement.

Under President Trump’s leadership, federal agents can finally do their jobs after years of being held back. These brave officers continue enforcing our nation’s immigration laws despite growing dangers they face.

The message from federal authorities is clear – sanctuary city status won’t protect those breaking immigration laws, nor will it shield those who attack law enforcement.

The growing violence against immigration officers should concern every American who believes in law and order. When activists move from protest to planting tire spikes, and when mayors stand with criminal gangs instead of law enforcement, we’ve entered dangerous territory.

Our nation’s immigration officers deserve support, not sabotage. Those attacking federal law enforcement – whether with dangerous words or physical weapons – must be held accountable. American safety depends on it.

Key Takeaways

  • Four anti-ICE activists were arrested for planting dangerous tire spikes targeting federal immigration officers in Los Angeles
  • Evidence links the saboteurs to CHIRLA, an activist group that tracks and reports ICE operations
  • LA Mayor Karen Bass personally interfered with immigration enforcement in an MS-13 gang territory the day before
  • Border Patrol Chief Bovino warns that anti-law enforcement rhetoric from sanctuary city leaders endangers officers’ lives
