Man Who Ran Over Cop in Sanctuary City Three-Time Deported Illegal Alien
An illegal alien who attempted to kill a Dallas police officer by twice running him over with a car has been deported three times in the past decade, yet still managed to return to the U.S. each time.
Eduardo Gonzalez-Rios is now being held in custody on three counts of aggravated assault on a public servant. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials have placed a detainer on the illegal alien, but given policies congruent with the sanctuary city in which he was apprehended, it is doubtful he will face any meaningful consequences.
Meanwhile, the Dallas Police Corporal Ed Lujan sustained a laundry list of serious injuries after being run over by the illegal alien twice, according to Breitbart.
After Gonzalez-Rios was escorted out of a night club where Lujan was working, officers escorted him to his vehicle. Gonzalez-Rios then allegedly backed his SUV into one officer. He then drove forward, jumping a curb, and completely ran over Corporal Lujan. Witnesses reported that Gonzalez-Rios then backed over Lujan again before other officers fired their weapons at Gonzalez-Rios, striking him in the arm.
Lujan is in an area hospital where he is recovering from the multiple injuries sustained in this incident. He is suffering from a broken sternum, nose, ribs, tibia and ankle, along with a fractured vertebra and skull, officials of the Greater Dallas National Latino Law Enforcement Organization told the DMN.
Officials with ICE revealed that Gonzalez-Rios had been deported from the country three times, the first incident dating back to 2004. He returned to the U.S. six months later but was deported that same day. Law enforcement officials do not know when the illegal alien re-entered the U.S. for the third time.
The Dallas County jail has been notified by ICE that they have placed a detainer on Gonzalez-Rios. However, Dallas County Sheriff Lupe Valdez announced in October that she was scaling back on honoring ICE detainers, Breitbart Texas previously reported. The Sheriff said she would consider ICE detainers on a case by case basis without regard to whether a felony or misdemeanor crimes had been committed.
Corporal Lujan will reportedly recover from the attack, but other similar attacks will follow suit if sanctuary cities are not abolished.
