A traffic stop in Beaver Meadows will lead to the deportation of a man who has been in the country illegally for 18 years, according to police Chief Mike Morresi.
Jose Palacios, 37, a Mexican with an Indiana driver’s license and driving a van with an Illinois registration, was stopped for speeding through Beaver Meadows on Friday at 3 p.m.
Morresi confirmed Palacios’ status after a check with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
The van was impounded and police later discovered it is owned by Efren Puente. Both Palacios and Puente list a Hazleton address of 340 W. First St. Puente was cited for allowing an unauthorized person to operate a motor vehicle.
Palacios will be deported, according to Beaver Meadows police and ICE. Police also filed citations against Palacios for speeding and operating a vehicle with a suspended driver’s license. Police said all citations were filed at District Judge Joseph Homanko’s office.
