FAIRMONT CITY -- All seven people charged in connection with a bloody melee on Sunday at a Mexican restaurant and bar are illegal immigrants, and they may be deported, according to detectives.

About 1:15 a.m. Sunday, officers from Collinsville Police Department, Fairmont City Police Department and Illinois State Police responded to a report of a large fight on the parking lot of Perez Cantina, 5903 Collinsville Road in the Fairmont City area.

At the fight scene, police found a switchblade knife, a machete and a sawed-off 12-gauge shotgun.

Three stabbing victims were taken from the scene to area hospitals. Two of those were released shortly afterward, but one remained Monday evening in critical but stable condition at a St. Louis hospital. An update on that person's condition was not immediately available Friday.

According to affidavits filed this week by Madison County Sheriff's Detective Michael Keshner, all seven are illegal immigrants.

Sheriff's Capt. Brad Wells said detectives have notified U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

"They have detainers on them. They will remain here until the state's attorney determines how they want the cases handled. That may include turning them over to ICE and they are deported," Wells said Friday.

Keshner's affidavits were filed as part of an application for search warrants. Detectives wanted a court order allowing them to take DNA samples from all seven suspects, for DNA comparison against blood found on the suspects' clothes. Circuit Judge Richard Tognarelli granted the search warrants.

The following suspects were arrested in the fracas:

* Josue A. Ortiz, 26, of St. Louis, charged with aggravated unlawful use of a weapon. Bail set at $40,000.

* Milton A. Morales, 29, of St. Louis, charged with aggravated battery and mob action. Bail set at $75,000.

* Danilo L. Cubas, 21, of St. Louis, charged with aggravated battery and mob action. Bail set at $75,000.

* Martil T. Oliva, 29, of St. Louis, charged with mob action. Bail set at $30,000.

* Carlos R. Paguada-Escobar, 21, of St. Louis, charged with mob action. Bail set at $30,000.

* Santos T. Pagoada-Ramos, 29, of St. Louis, charged with mob action. Bail set at $30,000.

* Ever A. Murillo, 17, of St. Louis, charged with mob action. Bail set at $30,000.

Madison County State's Attorney Bill Mudge's office declined comment on the case. A preliminary hearing on the criminal charges is scheduled for all seven defendants on Aug. 20.

True.

Multiply by every county in the United States and you begin seeing the picture.

Have THESE animals been deported yet?

Or should I say, have these animals been deported and REARRESTED yet?
