PHOENIX -- Phoenix has become a hotbed for Mexican fugitives in hiding, according to the U.S. Marshals Service.

"(Phoenix has) a huge Hispanic population, so it's easy for a fugitive to come into the U.S. and kind of disappear into society," said Marshal David Gonzalez.

A group of specially trained U.S. marshals, known as the Marshals Mexican Investigative Liaison Unit, works with Mexican authorities to track the fugitives down, arrest them and send them back to Mexico.

"We get requests from the Republic of Mexico on a daily basis for fugitives they think might be here," Gonzalez said.
