EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) — A 50-year-old man was recently arrested by Border Patrol agents in Las Cruces for illegal re-entry into the U.S. and for having an outstanding warrant for a sex offense against a child which was filed in Maryland, according to U.S. Border Patrol.
Border Patrol says at around 2:30 a.m. on Saturday, March 15, agents assigned to the Las Cruces station on I-10 arrested a Salvadoran national, who was later identified through jail records as Ricardo Rosales Reyes, with an outstanding warrant from the state of Maryland.
Records indicated that Reyes had an active and fully extraditable warrant for arrest for a sex offense against a child issued by the Prince George’s County Sheriff’s Office in Upper Marlboro, Maryland, Border Patrol said.
Reyes was removed from the U.S. in 2008, according to Border Patrol.
