WI: 20 Immigration Fugitives Arrested In Sweep
Report: 20 Immigration Fugitives Arrested In Sweep
POSTED: 7:48 pm CST January 30, 2008
GREEN BAY, Wis. -- A three-day sweep by federal immigration agents in eastern Wisconsin resulted in the arrest of 20 immigrants who have ignored orders for their deportation.
Officials said arrests were made in Brown, Door, Kenosha, Outagamie, Sheboygan and Winnebago counties, and they involved fugitives from El Salvador, Honduras, Jordan, Laos, Mexico, Nicaragua and Yugoslavia.
The 12 agents from the Milwaukee office of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Department worked in three-man teams to apprehend those being sought over a three-day period starting last Friday. Some had criminal records.
Gail Montenegro of the ICE in Chicago said the arrests are part of a nationwide effort to apprehend those who have gone before an immigration judge and been found to have no right to stay in the U.S. She says they'll stay in custody until they can be deported.
Those arrested were taken to the state's Dodge County Correctional Institution.
