Federal law enforcement agents arrested an illegal immigrant wanted by Venezuela in connection to four contract killings who crossed the border in 2022 and was given a work permit by the Biden administration.
Anthony Fabian Marin La Torre, 42, was caught by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents and the U.S. Marshals Service on May 2 in Grapevine, Texas, a suburb of Dallas, ICE said in a news release.
Marin La Torre was wanted by Interpol for four contract murders, a fatal shooting, and for being a lieutenant of the "El Chamu" gang, the New York Post reported Wednesday. He is being held at the Prairieland Detention Center in Alvarado, Texas. ICE said it wasn't until Feb. 18 that Venezuelan authorities notified the U.S. that Marin La Torre was wanted for the contract killings in his home country.
"This fugitive stands accused of some horrific crimes, further representing a threat in the communities of Texas that we will not tolerate," Josh Johnson, acting director of the ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations field office in Dallas, said in the news release. "ICE Dallas will never relent in our priority of enhancing public safety and arresting and removing criminal alien threats from our streets."
