Multiple Suspects Arrested After Alvarado Officer Was Shot at Detention Center | FOX 4 Dallas-Fort Worth
ALVARADO, TEXAS, JUL 4 – Ten suspects face multiple attempted murder charges after a coordinated ambush targeting immigration officers at a detention center, officials said.
- Last Friday night, ten suspects were arrested on attempted murder charges after a planned ambush outside Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas, injuring an officer.
- During heightened deportation efforts, assailants used fireworks and vandalism to lure officers amid the Trump administration's surge supported by a recent spending bill.
- Evidence shows assailants fired 20–30 rounds at unarmed officers, with a jammed AR-style rifle at the scene and some suspects wearing body armor and carrying radios.
- Following the attack, law enforcement enhanced security at the center; FBI pledged to partners that violence will not be tolerated, and the wounded officer was treated and is expected to recover.
- Larson said the investigation remains ongoing, with suspects facing attempted murder and firearm charges risking 10 years to life in prison.
