An illegal alien who served prison time for attempted murder was protected from being taken into Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody by a San Francisco federal judge was arrested Sunday for attempting three carjackings in a single day.
“An illegal alien in California was granted a restraining order by a San Francisco federal judge, barring ICE agents from taking him into custody,” the Trump Administration’s Rapid Response account on X.com reported Wednesday, posting video from a NBC Bay Area News report:
“Two weeks later, he was arrested for a string of crimes—including attempting to steal a car with a 3-year-old child inside.”
Guillermo Media Reyes has been in the U.S. illegally since he was six years old. Now 31, Reyes has become a poster child for pro-illegal alien activists. He had previously spent a year and a half in ICE custody.
On Sunday, according to NBC Bay Area News, Reyes allegedly:
- Stole a cell phone and tried to carjack a big-rig truck, which was hauling several vehicles.
- Stole a handheld radio from a rental car office, then called 911.
- Attempted to carjack a Prius from a customer in line at a local bakery.
- Attempted to steal a car from a 70 year-old woman at a gas station.
Drugs may have been a factor in Reyes’ behavior, the article explains:
“[Reyes] allegedly went into a local café’s kitchen and then to a rental car agency next door. Medics were summoned to a ‘medical emergency’ at the café, possibly a fentanyl overdose, according to dispatch traffic, but Reyes fled north as emergency responders arrived.”
The illegal alien was reportedly “combative and altered” when he was arrested and then taken to a local hospital, where he was given Narcan, a medication designed to reverse the effects of opioid overdose.
Reyes is currently being held for mental evaluation.
