NOGALES, Ariz. - A 20-year-old California man trying to enter the United States from Mexico with his family was arrested on a murder warrant.

Uriel Diaz of Pomona, Calif., was unable to provide U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers with identification as he tried to enter through the Nogales Port of Entry on Saturday.

When taken for fingerprinting, he admitted he was wanted in connection with a murder in Pomona and was taken into custody, Customs officials said.
