Four illegal immigrants were arrested Tuesday in the vicinity of Gold Star Plaza shopping center, Shenandoah, state police at Frackville said.
A trooper stopped a vehicle for traffic violations near the entrance to the shopping center when it was discovered that the four men in the vehicle were not U.S. citizens and were illegal aliens from Mexico, police said.
The men were identified as Nicholas Espinoza Matlala, 23; Juan Antonio Vazquez Matlala, 23; Javier Castro Garcia, 35, and Humberto Lazcano Vergara, 30. Police said the four men are believed to be living in Shenandoah.
