NORWOOD - Police arrested a Framingham man who tripped an alarm in a building where he worked - not because he was a burglar but because he was wanted on an immigration charge.

Jose C. Salerme, 40, of 259 Irving St., No. 2, was arrested Wednesday night on an immigration charge after police said the alarm called them at 11:35 p.m. to Jaguar and Land Rover of Norwood at 449 Neponset St.

Norwood Police spokesman Paul Bishop said Salerme, working as a cleaner, accidentally tripped burglar alarms several times.

"We get a lot of these types of calls," Bishop said yesterday.

When police arrived, they spotted Salerme's blue sedan parked outside, Bishop said, and checked its license plate through their computer, which is standard procedure.

Officers quickly found Salerme and figured out he wasn't a burglar, Bishop said. When information came back on the plate, police discovered he was wanted on a warrant from the federal Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Federal officials were not available for comment yesterday.

Bishop said Norwood Police are holding Salerme on the warrant until federal authorities process his case.

Bishop said Salerme told police he had been deported from the United States to his native Brazil before.
