Illegal immigrant set to be deported
Illegal immigrant set to be deported

Five years of invisibility came to an end for Gerson Nahum Melendez-Rodriguez when he stepped off a Greyhound bus in downtown Fargo 18 days ago.
That was the day the 25-year-old Honduran laborer was spotted by U.S. Border Patrol agents during routine checks at the bus depot.
The agents asked for Melendez-Rodriquez’s papers. He handed them over.
The false immigration document was crude, bought for $80 from a forger in Atlanta, where Melendez-Rodriguez had spent much of the past five years, working as an illegal alien.
Suspicious, the agents checked the number on the registration card; it belonged to someone else.
