NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Footage captures the moment when Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) officers in Los Angeles apprehend “a violent rioter” accused of assaulting a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released a video of the incident on X, featuring two HSI vehicles cornering a white car while armed officers exited their vehicles.

“This was no hit and run,” DHS wrote. “This was a targeted arrest of a violent rioter who punched a CBP officer.”

DHS said HSI tried to arrest Christian Damian Cerno-Camacho for the assault, and he attempted to flee in the vehicle.

Cerno-Camacho was arrested and taken into custody, the video shows.

Phan was convicted of shooting up a high school graduation party after a dispute, killing an 18-year-old and a 15-year-old. Seven others were injured in the shooting, according to DHS.

The FBI also announced it was looking for Elpidio Reyna after he allegedly assaulted a federal officer during one of the anti-ICE demonstrations in Los Angeles.

Reyna was allegedly captured on video throwing rocks at law enforcement vehicles on Alondra Boulevard in Paramount, California, resulting in an injury to a federal officer and damage to government vehicles.

DHS did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
