A Salvadoran fugitive with ties to the notorious MS-13 gang and wanted for murder back home was detained by Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) Boston in Foxboro on February 19.
This isn’t his first, second, or even third rodeo with U.S. immigration authorities. The 44-year-old has been removed from the United States not once, not twice, but three times before.
According to ERO Boston Field Office Director Todd Lyons, the arrest is a significant achievement in safeguarding the community.
“This unlawfully present fugitive is a member of a violent transnational criminal organization who is wanted for murder in his home country,” said Lyons.
“The people of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts are safer today now that this fugitive criminal has been arrested.
