Alien With an Expired Visa Busted After Getting Rejected…From Canada?
Brittany M. Hughes | 6 hours ago
An Estonian man living in the United States under an expired visa was arrested over the weekend after being denied entry into Canada, a nation allegedly at odds with President Donald Trump’s policies on illegal immigration and refugees in the U.S.
Customs and Border Protection officials said Wednesday that the 39-year-old alien, who was unnamed in the press release, had come into the United States legally but had overstayed his visa, which expired on May 10, 2015. On top of being in the country illegally, he’d also racked up a DUI charge in Los Angeles on January 30, but had since been released thanks to L.A.’s sanctuary city policies.
But when he tried to get into Canada late last week, Canadian border officials refused to admit him after they ran his name through the National Crime Information Center and realized he was illegally present in the United States. Instead, they sent him back to Blaine, Washington, where U.S. immigration agents then transferred him to the Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma to await court proceedings.
