Two employees of a California medical facility are facing significant charges for allegedly assaulting and impeding federal immigration officers during the apprehension of an illegal alien last month.
On July 8, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers were following a suspicious truck carrying three males while conducting targeted enforcement operations in San Bernardino County.
The officers approach the vehicle after it stopped, prompting two of the men to flee on foot.
“One of the fleeing men – an illegal alien from Honduras – was partially detained near the surgery center’s front entrance before he resisted and pulled away, causing both him and the ICE officer to fall to the ground,” the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California explained in a press release.
“Shortly afterward, a medical staffer helped the alien off the ground and helped pull him away from the officer. The alien proceeded inside the surgery center and was pursued by the ICE officer, who eventually stopped him.”
Witness footage of the incident circulated on social media at the time.
Jose de Jesus Ortega, 38, of Highland, and Danielle Nadine Davila, 33, of Corona, are accused of assaulting officers during the apprehension.
Davila is accused of “wedging herself in between the officer and the alien, pushing the officer, and shouting, ‘Let him go!’ and ‘Get out!'”
Ortega is accused of grabbing an officer’s arm and vest.
Another ICE officer arrived on-scene and Denis Guillen-Solis, 30, was eventually taken into custody.
“A federal grand jury has returned an indictment against both medical workers for assaulting a federal agent during an immigration enforcement operation. Both defendants will now stand trial for a felony violation of 18 U.S.C. 111,” Acting U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California Bill Essayli just announced.
If convicted, the defendants could face up to eight years in federal prison.
