The Department of Homeland Security has distributed details about over a dozen illegal immigrant suspects accused of committing crimes in the United States, who were apprehended in Los Angeles starting June 6.

The organization disclosed this suspect information following a weekend outbreak of violence in Downtown LA, sparked by ICE raids that led to “hundreds of illegal aliens [being] arrested by ICE officers and agents,” including “many with prior criminal histories and convictions.”

The DHS provided further details on 19 suspects detained by ICE Los Angeles on June 7, who are accused of crimes ranging from robbery to second-degree murder to rape.

“America’s brave ICE officers are removing the worst of the worst from LA’s streets, while LA’s leaders are working tirelessly against them,” DHS said in a Sunday statement as riots continued through the weekend.

ICE also arrested several American citizens during the riots on charges of federal obstruction and assaulting a federal officer.

Rioters assaulted officers, slashed tires, defaced buildings and taxpayer-funded property, the agency said in a June 7 press release.

“As rioters have escalated their assaults on our DHS law enforcement and activists’ behavior on the streets becomes increasingly dangerous, the federal government is calling in the California National Guard for additional support to ensure the safety of all citizens, law enforcement and public property,” a DHS spokesperson told Fox News Digital in a statement. “Politicians need to turn down the temperature — our ICE enforcement officers face a 413% increase in assaults against them as they are just trying to do their jobs.”

The agency is calling on Newsom and LA Mayor Karen Bass to “end” the rioting.

“The men and women of ICE put their lives on the line to protect and defend the lives of American citizens,” ICE Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement. “Make no mistake, Democrat politicians like Hakeem Jeffries, Mayor Wu of Boston, Tim Walz, and Mayor Bass of Los Angeles are contributing to the surge in assaults of our ICE officers through their repeated vilification and demonization of ICE. From comparisons to the modern-day Nazi gestapo to glorifying rioters, the violent rhetoric of these sanctuary politicians is beyond the pale. This violence against ICE must end.”

Fox News Digital reached out to Newsom and Bass for comment.

ICE said in a June 7 press release that it has arrested 2,000 illegal immigrants per day this week “and these violent activists won’t deter enforcement operations.”
