BREAKING: Operation Free MacArthur Park

Federal agents have taken control of MacArthur Park to execute federal arrest and search warrants targeting the notorious open-air drug market there.

We are going after street dealers and suppliers of massive amounts of fentanyl and methamphetamine. Over the last 24 hours, federal and local law enforcement have started arresting 25 defendants charged in a federal criminal complaint with possessing and distributing dangerous narcotics, including fentanyl and methamphetamine.

The park’s #1 drug trafficker, a Calabasas resident, is in federal custody and faces possible life imprisonment. The other defendants arrested today also face decades in federal prison.

Along with a recent federal and local takedown of the 18th Street gang, which claims the park’s northern area as its so-called “territory,” today’s enforcement action shows that TheJusticeDept and DEA are determined to fight drug traffickers poisoning our citizens.

New details- the carjacker shot and killed by a Texas father after trying to steal his car with his family inside was an illegal alien.

Garland Police tell me 30-year-old Jose Ramirez was here illegally from Mexico. Surveillance footage shows the father parked at a gas station with his family inside the car when a man forcefully tries to get into the driver’s seat, Brooke Taylor reports.

The family, including young children, is then seen scrambling out of the car, and after a struggle, the father shoots and kills him.

NEW: A Wisconsin police officer was injured last month after a disturbance call at a local business escalated into a violent confrontation that ended with a suspect fleeing the scene in a vehicle.

The incident happened at about 5 p.m. April 18 when an Oak Creek police officer responded to an assistance request at a business after an employee reported a customer causing a disturbance, the department stated in a social media post that includes security and body camera footage. The employee told police the man appeared intoxicated and did not have enough money to pay for his purchase.
According to investigators, the officer tried to resolve the situation after arriving on scene. Police said the suspect, later identified as Antonio McAfee, and a woman with him repeatedly refused commands to remain at the front of their vehicle.
The force of the collision pulled the officer across the hood of his cruiser. McAfee fled the scene. 
The officer suffered injuries to his leg and foot that required medical attention, police said.
Please join us in sending prayers and, or positive thoughts for his recovery🙏🏻

Every year at the California Peace Officers’ Memorial, we honor the officers who gave their lives in the line of duty. Behind every name etched into the memorial, are the families left behind, especially the children who grow up without their mother or father. These kids carry the sacrifice for the rest of their lives.

Please keep the families of our fallen heroes in your thoughts not just today, but every day.
