Noe Reyes Maldonado/Guatemala/Illegal Carrying of a Firearm, DUI

Noe Reyes Maldonado, a 30-year-old citizen of Guatemala, was removed by ICE San Antonio. Reyes is wanted in Guatemala for the illegal carrying of a firearm, a serious offense that demonstrates his disregard for both U.S. and international law. In addition to this charge, Reyes was convicted of Driving Under the Influence (DUI) on July 14, 2025. The DUI conviction highlights his recklessness and failure to uphold basic traffic laws, putting public safety at risk.

Reyes’s criminal background made him subject to removal proceedings. His illegal possession of a firearm is a violation of U.S. laws, as well as Guatemalan regulations, and his DUI conviction compounded his legal troubles. ICE, in coordination with ERO Guatemala and the SAFE taskforce, worked to remove Reyes from the U.S. to ensure he faces the legal consequences of his actions in his home country.

After completing the necessary legal steps, Reyes was deported to Guatemala, where he will face further legal action for his criminal behavior. This case underscores ICE’s commitment to removing foreign nationals involved in serious criminal activities, ensuring they are held accountable for their offenses in their home countries.
