EXCLUSIVE: Illegal Immigrant With Deportation Order Accused Of Raping 16-Year-Old Girl While She Was Walking Home

An illegal immigrant rammed his car into an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer during an arrest operation Monday, forcing the agent to fire back, The Daily Wire has learned.

Friedrich Castillo-Ormeno, an illegal immigrant from Peru, allegedly hit the officer as he was attempting to pull him over in Manahawkin, New Jersey, according to an ICE spokesperson. The officer discharged his weapon during the attack.

The officer was later transported to a local hospital for the treatment of his injuries, ICE said. Meanwhile, Castillo-Ormeno remains on the run after fleeing the scene.

“The FBI and local authorities are on the scene. This is a developing situation, and we will update the public when more information is available,” the ICE spokesperson said.

“There is a pattern of vehicle attacks against our officers. Our law enforcement officers are facing a 3,300% increase in vehicle attacks against them,” the spokesperson added.

Castillo-Ormeno was released into the United States under the Biden administration, ICE said. An immigration judge issued him a final deportation order on January 30.

The Daily Wire interviewed ICE officers in November who had been victims of the rising assaults on the job.

One of the officers spoke with us with 13 stitches in his upper lip and second-degree burns across his body after an illegal immigrant pedophile he was trying to arrest hurled a metal cup full of hot coffee into his face.

“We were stopping a vehicle. We had an individual who was a visa overstay from Mexico. We traffic stopped the vehicle,” the officer, who requested anonymity due to threats, recalled at the time.

“We were able to box the vehicle in, but the passengers bailed out, and a passenger, as he ran, threw what I thought was about a 32-ounce Yeti-style coffee cup in my face full of hot coffee,” the officer said.

Another ICE officer who spoke with us had been hit by an illegal immigrant driver. The officer said he was still being evaluated for possible nerve damage and a bone fracture.

“Everything we’ve always trained for, now we’re actually having to put into motion. The public, they’ve never seen us do our job, so now that we are actually doing it, people are taking matters into their own hands,” he said.

In response to an attempted vehicle ramming in January, an ICE officer fatally shot anti-ICE activist Renee Good who was said to be monitoring federal immigration activity in Minneapolis.

Good allegedly blocked the street with her car, keeping officers from entering for several minutes. After agents asked her to exit the vehicle, she was seen putting her car in reverse before moving in the direction of the officer who appeared to have taken a hit.

The incident sparked weeks-long anti-ICE protests and an eventual pullout of hundreds of federal immigration officers.
