Guillermo Infante Arevalo/Mexico/Assault, Forgery

ICE agents apprehended Guillermo Infante Arevalo in Omaha, Nebraska. The Mexico illegal alien faces charges of assault, forgery.

Assault charges involving illegal aliens draw attention from both local law enforcement and federal immigration authorities, initiating two separate legal processes. State prosecutors handle the criminal charge while federal immigration authorities pursue removal on an independent timeline. Arevalo now faces criminal penalties under state law and, separately, a federal immigration matter determining whether deportation is ordered.

Arevalo has been placed in federal immigration detention and is scheduled to appear before a Department of Justice immigration judge. If ordered removed, Arevalo would be deported to Mexico.
