ESCONDIDO – Police and federal agents arrested 14 people during a two-day deportation sweep throughout the city last week, Escondido police said.
Authorities on Wednesday and Thursday were looking for people with criminal records who had been deported and re-entered the United States illegally, police Lt. Mike Loarie said.
Eight people were arrested on suspicion of illegal re-entry and turned over to the Department of Homeland Security. One person jailed on suspicion of being drunk in public also was held for immigration authorities.
Five other people were arrested on suspicion of drug charges not related to any immigration offenses. Officers also found one stolen car and impounded two other vehicles, Loarie said.
