It’s an odd headline. The lede in this story should the shocking dashcam footage showing suspect Luis Cobos-Cenobio firing on police who were trying to pull him over. Unfortunately, immigration status is either buried or ignored altogether by mainstream media, so we thought it was necessary to point out up front that the man who allegedly tried to shoot and kill police officers is an illegal immigrant.
You can read the details at Fox News, one of the only outlets I’ve found so far that mentions his immigration status:

Cobos-Cenobio has been jailed on $500,000 bond, and has had a detainer placed on him by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, an agency spokesperson confirmed to Fox News.
Cobos-Cenobio has been charged with four counts of attempted capital murder, committing a terroristic act, fleeing, possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia, according to police.
If he is convicted on any or all of these charges, he’s going to jail for a long time. There’s no way to know at this point how many Americans he’s harmed in the past. Sadly, as a criminal illegal immigrant, there’s no reason for him to be here in the first place.
Mainstream media doesn’t want you to know that part of the story, though. Some went so far as to avoid the topic altogether.
For example, this article from ABC News is nearly 400-words in length and never even hints at his immigration status. Many stories simply noted as deep into the article as possible that he had a “federal hold” or “detainer request” without indicating that almost certainly means he’s here illegally.
Mainstream media is desperate to bury or cover up anything that pertains to illegal immigrants. This story, with its amazing and terrifying video, was too “good” for them to pass up. That didn’t stop them from hiding his immigration status.

Since the author believes that citizenship status is the most important detail to mention when reporting on a violent crime, does that mean she believes every crime committed by a citizen should begin with their status?
Example:
“US Citizen Murders Family”
or
“US CITIZEN Arrested For Series of Rapes”
If you read the actual news coverage on this, the ICE Detainer was placed because of this shooting incident. The fact that we know his name and age means he most likely was a LEGAL immigrant who now has a deportation order because he shot at the cops.
