GEORGETOWN — An alleged identity fraud scheme has led to the indictment of three Sussex County residents and the arrest of 28 more.

Joan Santiago, Oscar Laines and Hugo Lopez-Olquin are among those charged with buying Social Security cards and Puerto Rican birth certificates and distributing them to illegal immigrants downstate to help them get jobs and government benefits.

The arrests followed a yearlong investigation. Twenty-seven of those arrested face deportation.

Delaware U.S. Attorney Colm Connolly says more arrests are expected as the investigation continues.
