Fermin Flores-Ramirez/El Salvador/Gang Activity, Terrorism

ICE agents apprehended Fermin Flores-Ramirez in Doniphan, Nebraska. The El Salvador illegal alien faces charges of gang activity, terrorism.

The charges filed against Flores-Ramirez carry criminal penalties under state law and separately provide grounds for federal immigration enforcement. Local prosecutors will handle the criminal case through the state court system while federal immigration authorities pursue removal in a concurrent proceeding, both matters moving simultaneously on independent timelines.

Flores-Ramirez has been placed in federal immigration detention and is scheduled to appear before a Department of Justice immigration judge. If ordered removed, Flores-Ramirez would be deported to El Salvador.
