Immigration and Customs Enforcement swept the Reno area, made an arrest

El Salvador resident living in Reno was arrested Wednesday and facing deportation after Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents swept the Reno area.

Officials say the enforcement action by ICE agents targeted fugitive aliens already under deportation orders with criminal records in the United States.

The agents found Jose D. Mejia, 43, legal resident of El Salvador, at a Sparks apartment complex.

Immigration officers say Mejia was under a final deportation order issued in Sept., and will most likely be deported to his native El Salvador.
