A Waukegan woman who was stopped for speeding was arrested by Libertyville police and turned over to an agent with Immigration and Customs Enforcement on a warrant for her removal from the U.S.

Yeni C. Silva, 26, of 3710 W. Grandville, Waukegan, was stopped for speeding at 6:05 a.m. on April 22 on Milwaukee Avenue near Maple Avenue when a records check revealed that she was wanted on a warrant from Immigration and Customs for failure to appear for removal from the U.S., according to a Libertyville news release.

In addition to the speeding charge, she was cited for driving without a license and without insurance on the vehicle. After processing, she was released from Libertyville police on a $2,000 personal recognizance bond, but was then turned over to an agent from Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
