Mob Of 20 Pepper-Sprays And Assaults ICE Agents In San Francisco; DHS Says Attacks On Officers Are Surging

DHS says a 15–20 person mob surrounded four ICE agents during a targeted operation on Montgomery Street in San Francisco, grabbing, punching, and pepper-spraying them; one agent suffered a hand injury. Adrian Guerrero was arrested on federal charges after allegedly slashing a government vehicle’s tire and threatening to stab officers while carrying a knife. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem condemned the attack, citing a sharp rise in assaults on ICE personnel, and vowed enforcement will continue. The incident aligns with a recent cluster of confrontations near San Francisco ICE field offices reported in early to mid-August.
