EL PASO, Texas (CBS4) — Below is a news release from the U.S. Border Patrol regarding its arrest of an immigrant who had been previously deported and was attempting to enter the U.S. illegally:
"U.S. Border Patrol agents arrested a previously deported sex offender as he attempted to enter the United States illegally near the old Asarco plant in El Paso, Texas.
"Border Patrol agents working near the downtown area arrested three illegal aliens from El Salvador as they attempted to enter the United States illegally early Wednesday morning. Records checks revealed that 33-year old Mario Guevara-Cartagena had been previously convicted in October 2013 with four counts of sodomy of a child under 13 years of age in the state of Virginia. He served eight months in prison, before being removed from the United States in June 2014.
"In recent months, the U.S. Border Patrol has noted a trend with human smuggling organizations where they purposely direct people to turn themselves in to agents. While agents are busy processing those who are surrendering, the organizations are smuggling other people or contraband though different locations. These attempts have been thwarted thanks to the efforts of the U.S. Border Patrol who in turn are keeping convicted criminals out of our communities."
