Latin Kings thug captured after apparent looting of FBI weapons locker caught on camera in Minneapolis

Riots broke out in Minneapolis on Wednesday after a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer shot one of three illegal aliens the Department of Homeland Security claims savagely attacked him in an effort to evade arrest.

During the violent riots, independent journalist Nick Sortor captured damning footage of radicals ransacking and destroying federal vehicles. In one of Sortor's videos, anti-ICE rioters appear to rip a weapons locker out of a federal vehicle. In another video, radicals appear to successfully break open a different weapons locker and seemingly steal a rifle.

Sortor not only managed in the second video to get clear images of the suspected rifle thief's face — a face with a very specific tattoo — but his apparent license plate as well.

'Minnesota leadership ENCOURAGES lawbreaking.'

Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday evening that agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives working in concert with Justice Department partners captured a known member of the Latin Kings gang who allegedly stole FBI body armor and weaponry. Fox News confirmed that the suspect is 33-year-old Raul Gutierrez.

Hennepin County Sheriff's Office records indicate that Gutierrez of Inver Grove Heights is being held on theft and weapons charges.

"This criminal is a perfect example of what our brave federal law enforcement agents are up against every day as Minnesota leadership ENCOURAGES lawbreaking," said Bondi.

Bondi indicated that Gutierrez has a history of violence.

FBI Director Kash Patel indicated that "there will be more arrests," emphasizing that "any individual who attacks law enforcement or vandalizes federal property paid for by hardworking taxpayers will be found and arrested."

Sortor, whose vehicle was mobbed and vandalized by anti-ICE radicals on Sunday, noted on Friday that in the wake of the arrest, he has been inundated with complaints from leftists.

"Their Trump Derangement Syndrome is so bad that they're defending violent gang members who steal machine guns. Lmao," wrote Sortor. "What a time to be alive."

Antifa has circulated Sortor's picture on the liberal X knockoff Bluesky.

Journalist Cam Higby indicated on Thursday that he was swarmed and attacked by anti-ICE protesters who had mistaken him for Sortor.
