On Veteran’s Day, we thank those who have served.
Many veterans proudly trade their military camouflage for Border Patrol green. They choose to renew their oath and continue to serve.
Different uniform, Same mission. Protect America.

#ElCentro Sector agents did their homework and found exactly who they were looking for, along with a criminal history that speaks for itself. ✅
Agents identified an illegal alien sex offender in #LaQuinta, California. He entered the country illegally and had no prior immigration arrests, but his criminal history told a different story:
❌Lewd or Lascivious Acts with a child under 14
❌ Use, etc. of an underage person for obscene material
❌ Possession of Obscene Matter Depicting a Minor in a sexual Act
❌ Aggravated sexual assault of a minor-14 years old
One more threat removed from the US. One less predator in our community.✅️
❌He thought crossing borders would erase an aggravated homicide warrant? Think again.❌
#ElCentro Agents identified a Salvadorian fugitive living in the U.S. as an overstay and gave ICE/ERO Los Angeles the warrant and intelligence needed to act.
The result? ICE/ERO’s Foreign Fugitive Unit took him into custody, where he will remain pending removal proceedings.✅
Different badges, same mission. No safe haven for fugitives.

With no prior U.S. arrests and an undetected entry into the country, this Salvadoran national was living under the radar despite being wanted in #ElSalvador.
Information provided by #ElCentro Sector agents gave #ERO #Boston the lead needed to locate and take him into custody. He now faces removal to El Salvador, where authorities can hold him accountable for the alleged crimes for which he is wanted.

🚨MS-13 MEMBER ARRESTED🚨
Earlier this year this visa overstay was arrested and charged with DUI. He is also wanted in #ElSalvador for gang-affiliated activity as an MS-13 member. #ElCentroSector agents coordinated with our #ERO partners in New York to locate and arrest this illegal alien.
The distance was no obstacle, and neither is our commitment to removing illegal aliens from our communities.

Think you could handle this?👀
When the environment changes, the training changes with it. These agents are putting their skills to the test in the water—building confidence, sharpening their response, and staying ready for whatever the job brings.
Because out here, you fall back on your training and rise to the occasion.💪✅

Two Mexican nationals crossed the border illegally near #Calexico, CA and attempted to hide in the canal. BORSTAR’s search-and-rescue K-9s put their training to work and found them. 🐕
Both are now drying off in a cell and in removal proceedings.
BORSTAR: “So Others May Live.”

A dangerous fugitive thought he could hide in the U.S. …. WRONG❌
#ElCentroSector agents identified a Guatemalan national wanted in #Guatemala for aggravated rape of a minor. Records indicated that he illegally reentered the United States after being removed in 2015.
Agents obtained the warrant and shared the fugitive's information with law enforcement partners. Days later, the Oklahoma Highway Patrol stopped him for speeding, and a records check identified the active warrant. He was taken into custody and turned over to ICE/ERO for removal proceedings.
Law enforcement coordination puts criminal illegal aliens behind bars.

#ElCentroSector is sending this Illegal Alien Felon back to Mexico.
#Indio agents arrested the Mexican national in the #CoachellaValley whose criminal history includes assault with a firearm, false imprisonment, and child abuse.
His latest encounter came to a fitting end…in handcuffs and a one-way ticket back to his home country.✈️

The machine brings the horsepower and the agent brings the skill. Every turn and maneuver reflects the training required to use ATVs as a fast, precise and highly mobile patrol tool.
This is four-wheel precision in motion.

Murder fugitive from #Brazil no longer living in the U.S.💥
He illegally entered the U.S. in 2023 and was later ordered removed after failing to appear for his immigration hearing.
#ElCentroSector agents located him living in Florida and shared the information with #ICE/ERO. That teamwork paid off. ICE/ERO Miramar Fugitive Operations and Florida Highway Patrol arrested him and took him into custody and off the streets.
Different agencies. One mission. No safe haven for fugitives.

🚨Another wanted fugitive found and arrested.
He entered illegally and was living carefree in Texas while wanted in El Salvador for homicide. His laid-back attitude lasted right up until #ElCentroSector agents identified and located him.
With help from our law-enforcement partners in Houston, the illegal alien was arrested and placed in removal proceedings.
Houston, we found the problem. Texas is big, but our reach is bigger. ⚖️

When the sun clocks out, we move into the night, where the shadows hide nothing and the mission never sleeps.🌙

A wild ride on I-15 came with some serious baggage.😮
#Indio agents spotted a white van weaving through traffic, cutting off a semi and nearly causing a crash. Agents stopped the vehicle in the interest of public safety.
The driver and passenger fled the van leaving behind quite the haul: 558 pairs of stolen Brooks shoes valued at approximately $100K. BNSF Railway Police confirmed the shoes had been taken from one of their cargo trains.
Turns out a van full of running shoes couldn’t get these thieves across the finish line .🏃💨

He was good at hiding. Our agents are better at finding.🕵️♂️
#ElCentroSector agents identified an illegal alien from El Salvador who is an MS-13 gang member and is wanted back home for attempted homicide. With help from ERO partners in Texas, he was arrested and placed in removal proceedings.
Turns out staying quiet doesn’t make a warrant disappear. El Salvador still has some unfinished business waiting and the law gets the last word. ⚖️

All aboard!!! 🚂
Only this isn’t a train… it’s a one-way ride back to Mexico. Courtesy of the #ELCentroSector.
Agents in #Indio just arrested a previously convicted felon who’d overstayed his work visa. Multiple felonies and misdemeanors resulting in over 850 combined days sentenced to prison. The same guy who once ran with a theft ring targeting freight trains.
Sorry, outlaw… no free rides this time. Ticket canceled.🚫

His visa expired, his DACA ended, but accountability never went out of date.
#ElCentroSector agents arrested an illegal alien from Mexico in Riverside, CA., who was recently arrested and pled guilty to a crime requiring him to register as a sex offender.
The registration is mandatory, but his #RiversideCounty address is temporary. He will now be placed in removal proceedings—the federal version of a change-of-address notice. 🇺🇸

An Ecuadorian national wanted for fraud in his home country overstayed his visa and remained in the United States. His borrowed time ran out when the #ElCentroSector agents tracked him down. Working with our partners from #ICE and ERO Newark, agents took him into custody.
Now his extended stay comes with a change of plans—detention, removal proceedings, and a return home to face justice.
