Nhan Nguyen/Vietnam/Robbery, Aggravated Assault, Possession of Stolen Property

ICE San Diego arrested Nhan Nguyen, aged 43 and a citizen of Vietnam. According to law enforcement and court records, Nguyen’s criminal history includes convictions for robbery, aggravated assault, and possession of stolen property. He was taken into custody in the San Diego area and processed for immigration detention while the criminal record was compiled and verified.

Robbery is charged when property is taken from a person or in their presence by force, threat, or intimidation. Prosecutors typically substantiate this offense with victim statements, surveillance video, location and phone records, and any recovered property or clothing that links the offender to the scene. The use or threat of force distinguishes robbery from nonviolent theft offenses and is reflected in charging and sentencing decisions.

Aggravated assault concerns the intentional infliction or attempted infliction of serious bodily injury, often involving a weapon or conduct capable of causing great harm. Evidence in such cases frequently includes medical documentation, photographs of injuries, and witness accounts describing the assaultive behavior. The conviction indicates a court found the elements proved beyond a reasonable doubt.

The possession of stolen property conviction documents unlawful control of items known, or that should have been known, to be stolen. Common proof includes altered serial numbers, inconsistent ownership explanations, and recovery logs tying the property to recent thefts.

Following apprehension, Nguyen was booked into immigration custody. He will remain detained while identity is confirmed through biometrics, certified copies of convictions are obtained, and his case proceeds before an immigration judge. Any active or remaining state matters continue on their own track and will be reflected in the immigration file as required by law.
