Hazleton police found six people living in the country illegally while assisting Luzerne County Children and Youth Services on an unrelated matter Friday night.

Police said Maigro DeLeon Soto, 28; Elicia Perez Miguel, 26; Moises Santizo Mejia, 22; Milton Perez Miguel, 22; Miguel Perez Miguel, 19, and Otto Lopez Chavez, 29, were lodged in Luzerne County Correctional Facility, awaiting contact from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which placed detainers on them.

Police, who took them into custody after 8 p.m., said all six were living at 685 N. Locust St.

Milton Perez Miguel gave police the identification of Victor Sanchez; however, a check of his records indicated that he was deported from the United States previously and since returned, police said.
