WATCH: Rioter who threw rocks at federal agents arrested at border: ‘We got him’
‘Those who attack America’s police officers can run but they can’t hide,’ said FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino

Elpidio Reyna, an alleged violent rioter who was captured on video throwing rocks at the windshields of moving Border Patrol vehicles in Los Angeles, was arrested on Wednesday at the U.S.-Mexico border.Video of the attack allegedly shows Reyna, who is wearing what appears to be a motorcycle helmet, picking up several large rocks on the side of the road and lobbing them at Border Patrol vehicles as they pass by. The alleged attack occurred in Paramount, California, on June 7, during the height of the Los Angeles anti-ICE riots.
Bill Essayli, U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California, released video of the alleged violent rioter being picked up at the San Ysidro port of entry in San Diego. One federal officer was injured as a result of the attack.
According to Essayli, Reyna, whom he called a “dangerous felon,” surrendered to federal authorities at the U.S.-Mexico border to face a felony charge of assault on a federal officer. He was apprehended by a U.S. Border Patrol officer who was inside of the vehicles damaged by the attack and “could have been killed in last month’s dangerous and reckless attack.”

Being stupid should be painful and expensive. Thanks again, Gun Bunny.
I’ve got a pen and I’ve got a phone – and I can use that pen to sign executive orders and take executive actions and administrative actions that move the ball forward.

Those rocks he was tossing at windshields were bigger than softballs, the vehicles traveling at close to highway speeds. It could have gone a lot worse.
seems to me I recently read of a Denver case in which the driver was killed by kids dropping rocks onto their windshield.
That happens a few times a year and the offenders are rarely caught.
My idea of fitting punishment for Mr Reyna….make him run past a line of Border Patrol officers (bonus points for officers who were there at the original incident) while they throw rocks at him.
Once he’s hit (multiple times) and injured, package him up and drop him off across the border.
Literally….drop him off. At 500 feet. A LANO (Low Altitude No Open) no parachute drop.
Guaranteed he’ll never break the law by coming across the border again. That’d be about the only thing not broken on Mr Reyna.
Make it a HINO drop so he has plenty of time to consider the results of his actions.
I’m with Col Cooper, that’s a cute little watch fob. I’d buy one just to be able to buy a vest, watch, and chain to make a complete set.
I have a 1904 .25 and had to strip every part except 1 part which I could not take out down to parade rest, and finished off the slide with Brownell Oxpho blue. This gun was just dirty inside from the years that a former Yonkers Det. took it from a perp and it just dirtied up after over maybe 60+ years. His Daughter gave it to me after his passing and his partner got his service revolver. I mentioned the 1904 on todays Sig 320 Commisar’s Friday rant. My old Sears Robuck catologue had the gun listed for around $ there bucks….
Another interpretation of the pocket .25 is the original Seecamp LWS-25. They are a throwback, being solid steel with a thin plastic grip.
Subsequently up-gunned to .32, then .380, they are DA only last-ditch items. Seecamp didn’t bother with sights.
If you have, or acquire, one of the earlier LWS-32s, they only take Winchester Silvertips, a notably short projectile. Fortunately, Winchester sells a truncated cone FMJ of similar length and shape.
FWIW, the rock throwing fool can really hurl them. When the incident was in the news, in real time, I was “certain” that someone would take him out where he stood.
So happy that he is in jail and hope he remains there until the inmates are finished with him.
“Finished with him”, but not killing him. There are other people waiting their turn to take a whack at this asshat.
“The good Samaritan wasn’t at the scene when officers arrived”
And I hope he stays un-ID’d. He done his good deed for the day, time to move on and continue his other assigned daily chores.
Although I think that if he ever returns to the scene of the crime, he won’t be able to buy anything, his money will be no good.
