Illegal immigrant gang pieces of crap arrested. Officers detained eleven illegal immigrants following an intense SWAT operation at a Charlotte home early Wednesday morning. Police went to the house to serve a warrant on Rafael Wilfredo Rivas for allegedly altering the title of a vehicle. Officers received information that he may have been a member of the ruthless MS-13 gang and that there were possibly guns inside the two-story home. When SWAT officers entered the home, they were greeted by gunfire. According to police, Rivas' brother fired at cops. Bullet fragments struck one of the officers, but he was not injured. Police shot the alleged gunman and he is in critical condition. Cops removed twelve other people from the home for questioning. All but one are in the county illegally including Rafael Rivas. WBTV's Rob Tufano has more details in this report. Press "PLAY" to see this story.
