The U.S. Border Patrol says agents have arrested an illegal immigrant on a murder warrant.

Agents at the Border Patrol's Naco station says the man was apprehended last week while trying to enter the United States illegally.

They say the warrant turned up in a check of the Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System, or IAFIS.

The Border Patrol says the system showed he also had arrests for assault, gang activity and criminal firearms possession.

He was to be extradited to New York.
