Attorney General Pam Bondi announced on Monday that the suspect involved in the assault on a federal officer during the anti-ICE protests in Los Angeles has been identified.
The FBI had sought the public’s assistance in locating this individual by offering a $50,000 cash reward for any information that could lead to his apprehension. The suspect allegedly caused harm to a federal officer by throwing rocks at law enforcement vehicles, as reported by the FBI.
Bondi was a guest on “Hannity” Monday night, when she broke the news to host Sean Hannity.
A protester was seen adding debris to a fire while Border Patrol personnel equipped in riot gear and gas masks guarded an industrial park in Paramount, California, on Saturday, June 7, 2025. The image captures the tension and intensity of the situation during the protests.
The FBI said in a wanted poster that the suspect is considered armed and dangerous.
FBI Director Kash Patel warned Saturday night, “if you assault a law enforcement officer, you’re going to jail—period.”
“It doesn’t matter where you came from, how you got here, or what cause you claim to represent,” Patel told Fox News Digital. “If local jurisdictions won’t stand behind the men and women who wear the badge, the FBI will.”
Patel also issued similar warnings on social media.
“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,” Patel wrote Saturday night on X.
