David Chaver‑Castillo/Honduras/Assault

by G. George | May 07, 2026

Honduran national David Chaver‑Castillo was arrested in Minneapolis, Minnesota, after federal officers identified him as a criminal illegal alien with a prior conviction for assault. A Homeland Security arrest notice circulating online lists his country of origin as Honduras and specifies an assault conviction as the underlying offense that brought him to the attention of enforcement teams. The same material notes that he was taken into custody in Minneapolis during a targeted operation focused on noncitizens with violent criminal records.​

Following his Minneapolis arrest, Chaver‑Castillo was transferred to federal custody while officials reviewed his criminal and immigration history. The assault conviction documented in the Homeland Security materials is expected to factor into any future immigration proceedings, including decisions about detention and removal.​
