Guatemalan National Unlawfully Residing in the United States Pleads Guilty to Depredation

PORTLAND, Ore.-A Guatemalan National unlawfully residing in the United States pleaded guilty today after intentionally striking a government vehicle with his car.

Alvaro Carrillo, 33, pleaded guilty to depredation of government property.

According to court documents, on November 11, 2025, federal border patrol agents assisting Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers initiated a traffic stop of a car Carrillo was driving. Carrillo put the car in drive and fled the scene. Carrillo struck the border patrol agents' vehicle several times during the pursuit, ultimately losing control of his car and colliding with a concrete barrier.

On December 9, 2025, a federal grand jury in location returned a two-count indictment charging Carrillo with aggravated assault and depredation of government property.

Carrillo was sentenced today to time served after serving nearly five months in custody and he was ordered to pay restitution in the amount of $1,409.27.
