On Monday agents in Brownsville arrested a group of undocumented immigrants and during the processing discovered that one of them had an outstanding warrant from Mexico for a jail breakout at La Paloma prison in Nuevo Laredo. The man must first face immigration charges before being sent back to Mexico.
