 U.S. Border Patrol agents assigned to the Brackettville Border Patrol Station arrested a member of Mara Salvatrucha, also known as MS

-13, on Oct. 6.  MS-13 is a well-known and often violent transnational criminal organization with members throughout the United States.

“I am immensely proud of the vigilance and professionalism of our agents,” said Del Rio Sector Acting Chief Patrol Agent Matthew J. Hudak. “Every day our agents work to make our communities safer.  This arrest is just one example of how we are keeping members of violent gangs off America’s streets.”

During routine patrol, Agents encountered the Honduran national on FM 1908, 15 miles south of Brackettville. After determining the man was an illegal alien, he was transported to the station for processing. The suspect faces a charge of 8 USC 1325 – illegal entry.
