The two men crashed a moving van into the Mobil station at 1114 Putney Road on Jan. 27, according to Brattleboro Police. They were handed over to Immigration and Naturalization Services

A records check found that the men — Jose Cervantes, 24, of Mexico, and Luis Palacio, 45, of Colombia — were in the United States illegally, police said.
