February 27, 2009

A Venezuelan man who twice in one day attempted to enter the U.S. illegally at Vermont border crossings was ordered deported to Canada, the U.S. District Attorney's Office said.

Prosecutors say that Tuesday, David Manzano Zambrano, 37, tried to enter the U.S. at the Highgate Springs border crossing and was turned away.

He later attempted to cross the border at the East Berkshire port of entry, federal officials said. He pleaded guilty Thursday and was sentenced to time served before being deported to Canada, prosecutors said.
