Texas authorities have charged nine migrants for involvment in the assault on National Guard troops and storming of the border in El Paso, Texas, last Thursday a state government source told The Post.
The charges the migrants face include inciting a riot, damage of property of over $2,500 and assault on members of the Guard, the source said.
Texas authorities first arrested Honduran national Junior Evaristo-Benitez, 21, who is now charged with assault on a public servant, a third-degree felony, according to Texas Department of Public Safety Sgt. Eliot Torres.
Evaristo-Benitez, another of the nine charged, allegedly stomped on a soldier’s knee “purposefully and with malice,” according to Border Report.
