A U.S. Secret Service officer was injured in an assault while on patrol outside the White House on Saturday shortly after the major immigration rally in Lafayette Park, according to newly filed federal court records.
The man, who is only identified as Carmona in court records, is accused of illegally parking his BMW along Pennsylvania Avenue, moving a bicycle rack-style security barrier erected for the rally and screaming at the officers "Where is the president?" according to a Secret Service affidavit obtained by the News4 I-Team.
The court filings say that after Secret Service officers tried to stop Carmona for illegal parking, Carmona moved the security barrier and then punched an officer in the jaw and the left eye. Two officers took Carmona to the ground and placed leg shackles on him because they said he was kicking at the officers, according to the affidavit.

. ..lol, one of my best friends last name is Carmona...
Just forwarded this to him and told him to behave himself.
ShooDum
LOL!
I’ll re-up next week...
I remember that.It was a really bad fall.
The secret service kept tommy guns amongst other things in their arsenal until the 60's or 70's.
Does anyone else hear the rumbling of distant thunder? It feels as though there is a storm coming.
Should have dragged off his BMW with the back wheels on the ground. And let him watch.
Better yet - it might have had a bomb. They should have taken it apart with a jaws of life.
..while tazzzzed and waterboaded...
Thats funny. LOL
If the line 'he fell off a curb' was not in there I would have believed it.
A double tap to the head would have been easier and quicker.
Now kick the sh** out of him.
I’ll bet the MSMLSD bunch will twist it to the SS assaulted a protestor.
My Casbah rocks more than yours
Oh, I thought the old man was going to be Chris Wallace, until I got to the punchline ;)
I didn’t see that coming....
We need more humor like this!
“Somebody wake Sessions up.”
Forget about that idiot ... he is completely worthless.
If the Repubs hold the house and Senate I pray that Trump fires his ass ASAP.
Only 1 name? Possible foreign invader?
And drives a Beamer, too. Oh my, what a parody.
