At least one federal immigration officer fired gunshots during a traffic stop in Los Angeles on Tuesday, striking a motorist who authorities said threatened them with a vehicle while trying to flee an arrest.
A U.S. marshal also was hit by the gunfire, and both of the injured people were taken to a hospital, authorities said. The marshal sustained non-life-threatening injuries and was in stable condition, according to a spokesman for the U.S. Marshals Service. Authorities did not disclose the identity or condition of the motorist.
Los Angeles City Council member Curren D. Price Jr., in a social media post, identified the motorist as a man known as “Richard L.A.,” a TikTok and YouTube content creator who films law enforcement activity and immigration operations. Price’s deputy chief of staff, Jose Ugarte, told The Washington Post that the man’s full name is Carlos Richard Parias and confirmed that he was shot.

Dude has got a set of frigging 'nads on him, I give him that 
Apparently he could be facing 8 years in prison for assaulting federal officers by ramming their vehicle while trying to flee. Which sounds ridiculous if the agents were all in their car and the Richard's vehicle hit them at a low speed, which would be typical. Hope there's video showing that he didn't ram them at all in any case, otherwise dude is probably gonna be pretty fucked 
So it'd be utterly unsurprising if they were once again, full of shit
