Feds Charge U-Haul Driver With Assault After Coast Guard Island Shooting At Immigration Protest

Federal prosecutors charged the suspected U-Haul driver with assault on federal officers after reversing toward Coast Guard personnel during Bay Area protests tied to a planned immigration operation. Agents fired on the truck, injuring the driver and a bystander; the FBI complaint cites fears of a potential VBIED or armed occupants. The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Oakland is prosecuting; the next court date is Nov. 10. The incident is part of a recent cluster of Coast Guard Island security confrontations linked to CBP staging and local resistance.
