Exclusive | Accused ringleader of Texas border riot finally nabbed –

A suspected ringleader of the March border riot in Texas where a mob of hundreds of migrants bum-rushed the wall has finally been nabbed after seven months on the run, The Post has learned.

Venezuelan migrant Gabriel Enrique Angarita Carrasquero, 22, was wanted by the state of Texas for allegedly rioting and assaulting a soldier during the melee in El Paso.

He was initially nabbed in the violence, which was exclusively caught on camera by The Post.

But the feds released him before state authorities could arrest him because border agents failed to review footage of the riot to identify Carrasquero’s involvement.

Carrasquero allegedly helped orchestrate the border riot, where 211 migrants busted through a wire fence and took down the national guardsmen who were trying to control the group as they dashed to the border wall.

One of the rioters was seen stomping the knee of a soldier during the violence, sources previously told The Post.

At first, Carrasquero was believed to be in Arizona, where he told Border Patrol agents he was heading upon his release.

Instead, he was found in Des Moines, Iowa, in October and arrested by state police there during a traffic stop. He is currently in state custody in El Paso, Texas.

The Iowa State Patrol told The Post its troopers took Carrasquero into custody after pulling him over for a “traffic violation,” during which they “discovered he had a valid warrant out of Texas.”

As part of the Texas riot case against Carrasquero, Border Patrol agents had spoken to a “cooperating migrant” who identified Carrasquero as an “instigator” among the group who stormed the fence, according to internal documents previously seen by The Post.

The informant told border agents he observed “Carrasquero use [a] rope to pull the gate down which subsequently led to the migrant rush into the United states bypassing National Guard.”

Carrasquero was one of two alleged instigators who were initially released by border agents.

Luckily, Texas Department of Public Safety troopers were able to more quickly nab the other suspect, Juan Jose Colorado Gutierrez, 35, who was wearing an ICE ankle monitor at the time. It’s unclear exactly why Gutierrez was wearing the monitoring device.

Of the 211 migrants who busted through the border during the March riot, 124 have been cut loose by Immigration Customs and Enforcement under a Biden administration policy that directs the agency to prioritize their enforcement and detention beds for those deemed as public-safety, national-security and border-security threats.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott revealed in September that more than 100 of the rioters were suspected Tren de Aragua gangbangers.

The Lone Star state has since equipped its soldiers and troopers stationed along the border with non-lethal pepper ball guns to prevent any future violence.
