'Gross attack': Criminal illegal migrant 'savagely' bites ICE officer, DHS saysA criminal illegal migrant bit an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer while the agent was arresting him in Louisiana, the Department of Homeland Security announced.

DHS, which condoned the "gross" and "vicious" attack, identified the suspect as Maximiliano Perez-Perez."This criminal illegal alien is being charged with assault after he savagely bit a law enforcement officer in an attempt to evade arrest," DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said on Friday in "DHS law enforcement is facing a 1,150% increase in assaults against them and an 8,000% increase in death threats," she added. "This is the reality of what our ICE officers are facing every day as they go to work to simply do their job and enforce the law. “Many of these assaults, including biting and vehicle rammings, are happening as a direct result of sanctuary politicians encouraging illegal aliens to evade arrest.” DHS also said Perez-Perez tried to run and shoved officers before "he used his teeth as a weapon and clamped down on an ICE officer's hand." The bite broke the officer's skin and drew blood, according to the agency, which shared photos of the officer's wounds.Perez-Perez entered the U.S. at an unknown date and time and without being inspected or paroled by an immigration officer."We are 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," DHS said in the release. "This dangerous encouraging of illegal aliens to evade arrest comes after sanctuary politicians held webinars and provided resources and tips for how to openly defy ICE."Forest rangers are clarifying details in a theft that led to an Amish hunting party losing a big game sucessSix individuals have been charged in connection with a reported SNAP fraud investigation totaling nearly $1 million at a Dauphin County convenience store.'That's what brought us here': Land of Little Horses closing after 54 years in Gettysburg The popular Land of Little Horses is closing its doors after owners announced they are retiring and have not yet found anyone to buy the park.The attraction hasA student wrester was injured in a match Thursday night and flown to the hospital, according to the Dover Area School District.
