U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in Chicago this week arrested a Mexican national and former DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) recipient with a violent and lengthy criminal history who entered the U.S. illegally, officials said.
ICE described Alan Eduardo Garcia’s arrest as "high-risk" because of his "repeated aggression and attempts to evade arrest."
Garcia’s criminal record includes arrests and convictions for felony strangulation, domestic battery, disorderly conduct, battery causing bodily injury, and aggravated battery against a handicapped or pregnant woman, and unlawful use of a firearm.
ICE officers likely saved the 31-year-old’s life, who was arrested as part of Operation Midway Blitz in Chicago, by stopping him from jumping off a third-floor balcony, during his pursuit, ICE said.
