The suspect, 40-year-old Elpidio Reyna, is considered a fugitive by the FBI.
As protests against immigration raids grip the Los Angeles area, the FBI is searching for a man who allegedly hurled rocks at federal vehicles.
Authorities said they’ve identified the suspect as 40-year-old Compton resident Elpidio Reyna, who is considered a fugitive by the FBI.
Reyna was allegedly seen on video throwing rocks at law enforcement vehicles during protests in the south LA city of Paramount on Saturday afternoon, injuring a federal officer and damaging government cars, the FBI said.
“Turn yourself in,” FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino tweeted Tuesday. “It’s only a matter of time.”
The FBI said it’s offering a reward up to $50,000 for information leading to Reyna’s arrest and conviction. Anyone with information is asked to call 1-800-CALL-FBI.
Meanwhile, the Trump administration has dispatched 700 Marines to LA and increased the California National Guard presence to 4,000, despite California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s objections.
