Steven Carillo, the suspect charged with allegedly killing law enforcers in California during demonstrations early this month, was found to have links with the Boogaloo Bois movement, a right-wing rebel group. This was announced by the Federal Bureau of Investigation on Tuesday.

Forbes reported that according to the FBI, Carillo, a US Air Force Sergeant, arranged the timing of his attacks "to take advantage" of the challenging time when the country was mourning over George Lloyd's killing.

However, while the news site has reached out to the district attorney's office, the Insider said, it has not yet been able to independently confirm Carillo's connection to the Boogaloos .

However, as earlier reported, Carillo scribbled the "boog" (short for boogaloo) and "I became unreasonable" phrases on the vehicle's hood before the officers found and arrested him.

Meanwhile, victim, Seargeant Damon Guzwiller, and another deputy reportedly went near Jamison Creek where a white van suspected to be a venue for guns and bomb-making materials was, according to reports, they went to the scene in response to a call, reporting what was inside the van.

When the responding officers reportedly traced it to a home located in Ben Lomond, the suspect came out, shot fire and allegedly threw makeshift explosive devices at them. The attack led to Gutzwiller's death and the other deputy's injury after he was struck by shrapnel. 

What is Boogaloo Bois?

The term, "boogaloo," as explained by NBC News, is a "far-right anti-government movement" aiming to initiate a second American civil war.

Meanwhile, BBC News described "Boogaloo Bois" as a "relatively new" extremist government "subculture" that's probably the most dangerous of the kind of group. Aside from that, this is also said to be a loose and leaderless group.

Its name is reportedly based on a so-called "peer-reviewed film in the early 80s dubbed, 'Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo'." In relation to this, the "Electric Boogaloo" phrase, since the film became known to the public, has turned out to be an "online meme" which means "a low-quality sequel."

However, as a movement, Boogaloo Bois uses the phrase to cite an armed battle with law enforcers, which, news reports said, is something similar "to a US Civil War."

Carillo, also Responsible for the Oakland Shooting in Late-May

A source who knows about the investigation confirmed on Thursday, Carillo's involvement in the Oakland shooting in late-May. The said incident claimed the life of Dave Patrick Underwood, a Federal Protective Services.

According to reports, Underwood had been guarding the federal building few blocks from a demonstration "as tens of thousands of protesters took to the streets in cities across the nation" following George Floyd's killing in Minneapolis. Federal prosecutors are currently reviewing the Oakland shooting.

Meanwhile, in testimony the victim's sister, Angela Underwood-Jacobs, gave on Wednesday before a congressional panel, she said "her heartbreak and grief" are unexplainable.

Her brother, she said, wore a uniform and that he wore it proudly. She continued and said she wonders, "Where is the outrage for a fallen officer" who happens to be an African American, as well?
