ICE Captures Tren de Aragua Gangbanger Released in Chicago Despite Arrests for Murder, Kidnapping, Sex Assault
: Chicago Police Department
A Venezuelan gang member under a long-standing deportation order was arrested by federal authorities in the sanctuary city of Chicago this week, according to reports.
Pedro Colmenares, 33, is an illegal alien with a lengthy rap sheet that includes arrests for sexual assault, kidnapping, and domestic battery.
Additionally, he was investigated in connection with a murder in the Windy City last month but authorities in the sanctuary state opted not to press charges, citing insufficient evidence and “uncooperative witnesses,” Fox News reports.
Colmenares was first apprehended after illegally entering the U.S. at an undisclosed location in September of 2022.
Two months later, a federal immigration judge ordered him deported, but the Venezuelan appealed the ruling and made his way to Chicago in the meantime.
