NEWARK, N.J. – Acting US Attorney General Todd Blanche announced late Friday that a rioter who threatened to kill a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer and his family outside of Newark’s Delaney Hall has been arrested.
“That’s a federal crime,” Blanche told Fox News’ “The Will Cain Show” a mere 24 hours before the arrest. “Not only threatening the ICE officer, but think about how disgusting this individual is by threatening his wife and his children with death.”
The viral video shows the rioter – not yet officially identified, screaming at an ICE officer and promising to “kill your whole f—ing family. Your whole f—ing family is dead. Your children and wife all dead. I have your face mother—er! All dead!”
Blanche made the announcement on X:
