ICE Arrests MS-13 Gangbanger Wanted for Murders
An MS-13 gang member who is wanted for two homicides in his home country of El Salvador was recently arrested in New York.
On Monday, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) announced the capture of Melvin Orlando Hernandez Villanueva, a 27-year-old Salvadoran who was living illegally in the United States.
ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) agents tracked Hernandez Villanueva down at his residence in Queens on June 20.
Hernandez Villanueva was the subject of an INTERPOL Red Notice issued in October of 2023 and has been wanted by Salvadoran authorities for two counts of aggravated murder and unlawful groups since 2019.
He illegally entered the U.S. at an unknown date and time.
“This violent criminal and MS-13 gang member erroneously thought he could escape murder charges in El Salvador by sneaking into the United States and hiding out in New York City,” ERO New York City Field Office Director Kenneth Genalo said in a statement.
Authorities continue to catch dangerous foreign criminals illegally present in the U.S.
