Police also found a flag reading, ‘Resist Fascism. Fight Oligarchy,’ as well as masks, goggles, gloves, weapons, fireworks, flyers, and body armor.
Eleven people were arrested, and of those, 10 were charged with three counts of attempted murder of a federal officer. The 11th person is facing a charge of obstruction of justice.

“Make no mistake — this was not a so-called peaceful protest. It was indeed an ambush,” said acting U.S. Attorney Nancy Larson.
Two unarmed officers walked out to talk to the group, and an officer with the Alvarado Police Department also responded. The officer was shot in the neck by someone in the woods, and another person fired between 20 and 30 rounds at the ICE officers.
The group members fled from the scene but were apprehended later by officers. They were found with guns and a Kevlar vest, according to law enforcement.

The officer who was shot is expected to survive.
The suspects face up to 10 years in prison if convicted.

Republicans have been excoriating some Democrats for their overheated rhetoric against ICE officers and have tried to link the hysterics to violence against federal officers.
