Mexican national held in Florida, accused of spying on US for Russia
By Brie Stimson | Fox News

 

A Mexican citizen has been arrested in Florida for allegedly working as a Russian agent to get information on the U.S. government, the Justice Department said Tuesday.

Hector Alejandro Cabrera Fuentes was allegedly recruited by a Russian contact and flew into Miami International Airport last Thursday to locate and get the license plate number of a vehicle used by a U.S. government source.

His Russian handler had given Fuentes the assignment when he flew to Russia earlier this month, a DOJ statement said.
