Man Unlawfully Living in the United States Charged with Assaulting Federal Officers

PORTLAND, Ore.-A Guatemalan national unlawfully residing in the United States made his initial appearance today after being charged with assaulting federal officers.

Alvaro Carrillo, 32, has been charged by criminal complaint with Assaulting a Federal Officer.

According to court documents, on November 11, 2025, federal border patrol agents assisting Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers initiated a traffic stop on a silver Saturn sedan. Law enforcement officers approached the vehicle, identified themselves to Carrillo, and attempted to remove him from the vehicle when he did not comply with their commands. Carillo put the car in drive and fled the scene. Carrillo intentionally struck the border patrol agents' vehicle during the pursuit. After more than ten minutes, Carrillo lost control of his vehicle and collided with a concrete curb. Carrillo exited the vehicle and assumed a fighting position. Carrillo attempted to escape and ran approximately thirty yards before an officer was able to take Carrillo into custody. Carrillo resisted the officers during the arrest.

Carrillo made his first appearance in federal court today before a U.S. Magistrate Judge. He was ordered detained pending further court proceedings.

Homeland Security Investigations is investigating the case. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Oregon is prosecuting the case.

A criminal complaint is only an accusation of a crime, and a defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
