Man Arrested After Spitting At Protesters
(CBS) LAKE FOREST, Calif. A man was arrested after spitting at an anti-illegal immigration protester in Lake Forest then running away from pursuing deputies.

At about 8:30 a.m., a man allegedly drove past a rally at Jeronimo Lane and Orange Street and spat at one of about 40 protesters gathered at the corner, according to Orange County Sheriff's Department spokesman Jim Amormino.

When sheriff's deputies caught up with the man and stopped his vehicle, the man exited his car and ran as officers pursued him.

The suspect, 24-year-old Hugo Maldonado, was discovered to have an outstanding warrant for his arrest. He was charged with resisting arrest and having an outstanding felony warrant.

See how the mainstream press spins this: "anti-illegal".
They could have written "PRO-AMERICAN." But Ohhhh Noooooo, they gotta make the victim, the good guy, look bad with their choice of words.

ANTI - ILLEGAL - PROTESTOR
The liberal press does this to attempt to confuse an un-informed reader.

The press learned how to "spin" the news from James Carville and from the Clintons.

Man arrested for spitting at protesters in Lake Forest
By CINDY CARCAMO
The Orange County Register
LAKE FOREST -- Deputies arrested a man on a felony warrant after he spit toward a crowd of anti-illegal immigration protestors today in Lake Forest, Orange County Sheriff’s officials reported.

Hugo Maldonado, 23, is being held without bail at the Orange County Men’s Jail on a federal felony immigration warrant and suspicion of resisting arrest, Lt. Val Wilson.

At about 8:30 a.m., Maldonado was a passenger of a car that drove into a parking lot near a day labor site close to Ganahl Lumber store and a liquor store on the 23100 block of Orange Avenue, Wilson said.

Maldonado spit toward about 40 anti-illegal immigration protestors, Wilson said, but it’s unclear whether he struck someone. Deputies, already in the area to keep the peace, saw what happened, spoke with Maldonado and ran his name, Wilson said.

Maldonado led deputies on a short foot pursuit after they discovered that he had an active warrant. Specifics about the warrant are unclear, Wilson said.

Also unclear is whether Maldonado had any connection to the day labor site or the protestors there, she added. Other than this incident, the protest was peaceful.

“You have an isolated, small incident,” Orange County Sheriff’s spokesman Jim Amormino said. “It’s too bad that that even happened.”

Now we finally start to get the truth.

A 23-year-old man wanted for an alleged immigration violation was arrested Saturday after spitting at demonstrators protesting illegal immigration, authorities said.

Hugo Maldonado, whose address was not released, was driving past a group of some 40 protesters at Jeronimo Lane and Orange Street about 8:30 a.m. when he spat at them through his window, authorities said. When deputies tried to detain him, he abandoned his car and fled, sheriff's spokeswoman Lt. V. Wilson said.

Bye-bye, Hugo. Tell Vicente hi for US.

Is it just me or does it seems the pro illegal faction are the ones starting trouble at these rallies? I am glad something good came out of the spitting incident
