“A 19-year-old man was charged in San Diego federal court Tuesday with ramming a federal agent’s vehicle in Escondido during an immigration [abduction], prosecutors said. The man, a Mexican national, pleaded not guilty to assaulting a federal officer, assaulting a federal officer resulting in bodily injury and destruction of government property, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office. Federal authorities later determined he was not the original target of the [kidnapping attempt], according to the complaint. Officials did not disclose his immigration status.” (08/12/25)
