Homeland Security agents crash into and arrest driver in Los Angeles
Security cameras on Wednesday captured Department of Homeland Security agents driving their unmarked cars into a white Mercedes sedan during an arrest operation in a Los Angeles neighborhood. Homeland Security said the agents were targeting a man who allegedly punched a border patrol officer. Surveillance footage showed federal agents using a truck and an SUV to pin the suspect's car along Whittier Boulevard in Boyle Heights. "This was no hit and run. This was a targeted arrest of a violent rioter who punched a CBP officer," Homeland Security posted on X. "When Homeland Security Investigations tried to arrest Christian Damian Cerno-Camacho for the assault, he attempted to flee. He was ultimately arrested and taken into custody." Witnesses said the agents drew their guns and used tear gas before the driver exited the vehicle. One bystander, Verita Topete, said she spoke to a passenger in the car. "They had been following them since Long Beach," Topete said. "He started to drive very suspiciously over here because he felt like he was being followed. That's when they got to this intersection. They supposedly had a warrant for his arrest because he was a protester at the Paramount protest." Topete said the passenger was flustered after the collision. Another witness, Steve Silva, said she had two babies with her. "Literally, one in a crib and the other one maybe 1.5 years old," Silva said. Topete said she stayed with the woman, called paramedics to evaluate the babies and filed a police report against the agents. "They were proud of what they did, which is not OK," Topete said. "They're out here terrorizing this poor woman and her children. I helped her call the paramedics to get her babies checked out and 911 to make a police report because who's going to pay for this?"

MTA renews anti-subway surfing efforts with ad campaign
Transit officials are hoping a new ad campaign, a new spokesman and a few subway car modifications will continue to drive down subway surfing deaths. The MTA relaunched its 'Ride Inside, Stay Alive' anti-subway surfing campaign on Wednesday, this time with the support of Queens-born professional BMX bike rider Nigel Sylvester. Like last year's initiative, the push involves a series of recorded subway announcements — by Sylvester, as well as by New York City schoolchildren — about the dangers of riding on the outside of a subway train, plus a series of digital posters displayed on subway and platform screens. 'Subway surfing is going to get you injured or killed,' Sylvester says in a subway announcement recorded for the campaign. 'It's pretty simple: Don't do it.' 'I believe I can relate to these kids,' Sylvester said Wednesday, when asked how a professional thrill seeker can be a role model for safety. 'Kids can relate to me, and we can have a meaningful dialogue.' Subway surfing has been a persistent, deadly problem, with six deaths attributed to the practice last year and five deaths in 2023. Another 25 people were injured while riding outside of trains in those two years. The overwhelming majority of subway surfers are teenagers. So far this year, one person — a 13-year-old boy — has died from subway surfing, succumbing to his injuries days after falling off the top of a No. 7 train in Queens. 'As a father of three children, I can't imagine seeing my child on [top of] a train as that train barrels down the track,' said NYC Transit President Demetrius Crichlow. 'I was a manager here on the [No.] 7 line,' Crichlow continued. 'I've seen on a first-hand basis what happens to the children when they come into contact with a fixed, immovable object.' The revamped campaign focuses not just on the dangers of subway surfing, but on the toll that kids' deaths take on surviving families and friends. A three-display ad unveiled Wednesday tells the fictionalized story, in comic-book form, of a 12-year-old who falls from a train, and the horrors his death inflicts on his friends, his mother and the EMT who responds to the scene. The MTA's chief customer officer, Shanifa Rieara, said the campaign involved 43 such ads that would be rolled out over the next 12 months. Other announcements focused on the senselessness of a subway surfing death. 'The rush from subway surfing is fleeting — the consequences are real,' Ahana Chandra, a student at Stuyvesant High School, said in her subway announcement. 'Six people died subway surfing last year, and for what?' The ad campaign comes amid a series of other efforts to curb thrill-seeking subway deaths. The transit agency is in the early stages of testing add-on barriers to train cars in an effort make it harder to climb up to the roof. Rieara also noted that the MTA's efforts to get subway-surfing videos taken down from social media continues. So far this year, she said, roughly 1,800 such videos have been removed by platforms like X, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube.

ICE denies Detroit high school student's request to stay in U.S. until graduation
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has denied a request by a Detroit high school student to stay in the U.S., according to his attorney. Maykol Bogoya Duarte, 18, of Detroit, who is currently in an ICE detention center in Louisiana, had requested on Monday, June 9, a stay of removal filed by his attorney, Ruby Robinson. But that request was denied by ICE on Wednesday, June 11. The denial means that Duarte, an immigrant from Colombia who lived in Detroit, may soon be deported once ICE is able to gather other Colombian nationals for a plane to Colombia. The jail where Duarte is currently housed, Pine Prairie ICE Processing Center in Louisiana, is known as a staging area for immigrants about to be deported, Robinson said. The denial came despite desperate pleas by Duarte and his supporters in Michigan. More than 1,600 have signed a petition asking for his release until he can graduate from high school. Duarte has just three to four credits remaining to get his diploma, Robinson said. Elected officials, including Detroit's two U.S. House representatives, issued statements calling for his release. More: Border Patrol arrested a Detroit student on a field trip. He now faces deportation. U.S. House Rep. Shri Thanedar, D-Detroit, said June 11 he sent a letter June 10 to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem asking for "an immediate update on his well-being, the reasons why he was initially targeted by law enforcement, and that he be granted a stay of deportation to complete his education." A protest was planned for late Wednesday outside an ICE office building in downtown Detroit on Michigan Avenue. The mother of Duarte said she's appreciative of the community support, saying in a statement through the Michigan Immigrant Rights Center: "Mil mil gracias," or "Thanks a million." More: Detroit high school student detained by ICE pleads to halt deportation until graduation Duarte, a student at Western International High School, was stopped by Rockwood police in May while headed to a field trip in a Downriver park along with some other students. He was accused of tailgating a police officer in an unmarked car. Rockwood police then called Border Patrol, who then arrested Duarte. He was later transported to an ICE jail five hours north in Sault Ste. Marie and is now in Louisiana. ICE did not comment June 11 on Duarte's case, but has previously said he was an illegal alien who had a previous order of deportation. Robinson said Duarte and his mother had previously applied for asylum after entering the U.S. about one and a half years ago. There was a protest in support of immigrants on June 11 in a separate case outside the McNamara Federal Building on Michigan Avenue after some claimed ICE had arrested immigrants showing up for court cases. The arrests could not be immediately verified, but an ICE spokesman released a statement to the Free Press saying that ICE officers have permission "to conduct civil immigration enforcement actions in or near courthouses when they have credible information that leads them to believe the targeted alien(s) is or will be present at a specific location."
