This is the department's account of an arrest, and it is not a criminal conviction. The release describes a leg injury and a same-day arrest. It does not set out a filed charge, a bail amount, or a court date, and an earlier arrest is not a finding about this stop.
ICE arrested Jose Juan Garnica-Naranjo on Nov. 10 during a targeted stop in Chicago Heights. The Department of Homeland Security says he is a Mexican national who was deported seven times in 2013 and later returned. The release does not give an age, and it does not announce a criminal charge.
DHS says officers told him to turn the engine off and that he did not. It says he drove away while an officer was still partly inside the driver's door, then crossed a median. The officer was thrown from the car and then hit by it. He went to a hospital with a leg injury and has since been released. Officers arrested Garnica-Naranjo later that day.
DHS says his record includes earlier arrests for assault and domestic violence. Those are prior arrests in the department's account. They are not convictions entered on this stop.
All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
