TUCSON, Ariz. U-S Border Patrol agents announced the arrest of a man believed to have ties to a Central American-influenced street gang that has spread violence in cities and suburbs nationwide.
A group of 17 suspected illegal immigrants were spotted Saturday.
A fingerprint check identified one of the men as 29-year-old Omar Nunez-Jairo.
