An illegal alien from Honduras was arrested after she accidentally collided with federal immigration agents this month in Louisiana.

On Saturday, U.S. Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino shared photographs and details about the incident, which unfolded at around 7 a.m. on Dec. 11 in Slidell, a city in St. Tammany Parish.

Reyna Funez, 43, blew a red light on an I-12 off-ramp and crashed into a Ford Expedition, according to the Slidell Police Department (SPD).

SPD determined Funez was at fault for failing to yield while turning right on red, WGNO reports.

Officers also discovered Funez was driving without a valid driver’s license and was in the U.S. illegally.

Incredibly, the Expedition was being used by federal immigration agents executing Operation Catahoula Crunch, a major enforcement surge in the Bayou State.

“This blooper is one for the books!” Commander Bovino stated in a social media post. “Apparently she never learned the lesson that red means stop, not ‘accelerate and collide with a government vehicle actively enforcing federal law.'”

“No injuries were reported, but she was certainly taken into custody. Unlucky for her. Lucky for us.”

Roughly 370 illegal aliens were apprehended during the first two weeks of Operation Catahoula Crunch, which launched on Dec. 3.

“While sanctuary city politicians have refused to do their job, DHS is making the New Orleans community safer as it continues to arrest illegal alien drug dealers, hit-and-run criminals, and one monster who was convicted for arson and threatening a person with intent to terrorize,” Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin stated.

“I hope that sanctuary politicians will say thank you to the men and women who are putting their lives on the line to get these criminals off the streets.”
