U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the U.S. Marshals Service arrested Luis Naula-Candelario, a criminal alien from Ecuador who is wanted in his home country for murder, in Pickerington, Ohio, February 12.
Naula remains in ICE custody pending further immigration proceedings.
Members of the public can report immigration crimes or suspicious activity by dialling the ICE Tip Line at 866-DHS-2-ICE (866-347-2423) or completing the online tip form.
“Foreign fugitives will find no safe haven, here in Ohio or across the U.S., for crimes they committed in their home countries,” said ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Detroit Field Office Director Robert Lynch.
Lynch added, “By removing these fugitives from our communities, we not only prevent them from victimizing Americans but also ensure that justice is served for their victims abroad.”
