FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino gave a chilling warning to rioters in Los Angeles who were pelting federal agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) with rocks as they drove past.
The deputy director asked for the public’s assistance in finding them and warned the perpetrators that it was “only a matter of time” until they were captured.
“We are currently seeking information regarding the identity of the person(s) throwing rocks at vehicles conducting critical law enforcement operations,” he said in a post on X.
“One of the perpetrators in this video is wearing a helmet, and we’re going to use our investigative tools to locate the individual. I strongly suggest you turn yourself in, it’s only a matter of time,” he said.
FBI Director Kash Patel also shared a direct message with the suspects.
“Hit a cop, you’re going to jail… doesn’t matter where you came from, how you got here, or what movement speaks to you. If the local police force won’t back our men and women on the thin blue line, we @FBI will,” he said.
ICE agents moved in Friday, hitting several locations across Los Angeles — including a clothing warehouse in the city’s Fashion District — after a judge found probable cause the employer was using fake documents for some of its workers, according to Homeland Security Investigations and the U.S. Attorney’s Office,” CBS News reported.
Things got heated fast.
