Our brave ICE law enforcement is facing a 3,200% increase in vehicular attacks

WASHINGTON - The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) today announced a criminal illegal alien from Laos with previous convictions for vehicle theft, stolen property, conspiracy, petty theft, two DUIs, resisting an officer, battery, and felony possession of a firearm weaponized his vehicle in an attack on U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) law enforcement officers and remains at-large.

"On March 25, 2026, ICE conducted a targeted vehicle stop to arrest Xa Lee, a fugitive and criminal illegal alien from Laos. He was previously convicted of vehicle theft, stolen property, conspiracy, petty theft, two DUIs, resisting an officer, battery, and felony possession of a firearm. During the vehicle stop, Lee attempted to flee and hit an ICE officer with his vehicle. The officer, thankfully, did not sustain injuries. During the incident, ICE officers pulled out their tasers. He fled the scene and remains at large," said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. "This is just the latest in a disturbing trend of vehicle attacks. We are calling on the public to report any sightings of this criminal illegal alien to ICE at (866) 347-2423."

Lee was issued a final order of removal by an Immigration Judge in 2010 and was placed on the Alternative to Detention Program.

This dangerous criminal illegal alien is still at-large. DHS requests that if the public has any information of his whereabouts, please contact the ICE Tip Line at (866) 347-2423 or fill out the ICE Tip Form online.

This dangerous attempt to evade arrest comes after sanctuary politicians held webinars and provided resources and tips for how to openly defy ICE:

• Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez hosted a webinar providing tips for illegal aliens to evade arrests at homes, workplaces, or in public.
• Representative Dan Goldman posted a video online calling on illegal aliens to make a plan for ICE encounters.
• Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass issued multilingual flyers and online resources advising illegal aliens on how to evade arrest.
• California Governor Gavin Newsom released guides and sanctuary laws advising illegal aliens how to recognize ICE, block entry, and defy arrest.

DHS is once again calling on sanctuary politicians, agitators, and the media to turn the temperature down and stop calling for violence and resistance against ICE law enforcement.
