A federal agent is facing felony assault and child endangerment charges in Riverside County after being caught on camera detaining a 17-year-old boy at gunpoint. The teenager was headed home from a house party on November 10 at the time of the confrontation

Video footage of the encounter—obtained by the law firm Kirakosian Law, and shared exclusively with L.A. TACO—shows off-duty federal agent Gerardo Rodriguez wearing shorts and standing outside of his home on Daybrook Terrace just after 10 p.m. in an affluent part of Temecula, where houses sell for over $2 million.

As a 17-year-old driver in a pickup truck drives towards Rodriguez, the federal agent is seen retrieving a firearm from his waistband and pointing the gun at the teen.
