“According to court documents, Kevin Dominguez, 26, drove a sedan to the U.S. Border Patrol immigration checkpoint, located on U.S. Highway 57, on Aug. 1, 2023. A USBP canine alerted the agents to the trunk, revealing an individual inside. Upon the USBP agent noticing the individual, Dominguez backed up and struck the agent with the vehicle before fleeing the checkpoint,” the FBI announced in a press release.

“A high-speed chase ensued and a USBP helicopter observed two occupants exit the vehicle into an open field. One of the individuals was located and confirmed to be an undocumented noncitizen from Honduras. Dominguez was indicted in a two-count indictment on Sept. 13, 2023, and was arrested on Sept. 14. He pleaded guilty on Jan. 24, 2024,” the press release added.

Separately, the FBI also announced that four people were arrested in El Paso, Texas, on criminal charges related to their alleged roles in a plot to smuggle people across the border.

Official court records say that agents from the Ysleta Border Patrol Station’s Disrupt Unit were watching a motel in El Paso when they saw a car with a temporary license plate. The vehicle had already been seen at several hotels that were known to house undocumented foreigners. According to court documents, the driver of the car briefly went into the motel lobby before getting back in and driving off.

Soon after, the agents supposedly saw three people carefully leaving one of the motel rooms and getting into a different car with a temporary license plate. Yair Alejandro Aguilar-Flores, the driver of the car, is said to have admitted that he is from Mexico and is living in the US illegally.

Angel Eduardo Carrillo-Carrillo and Jorge Alfredo Lopez-Acevedo, the two people who were with him, were also arrested because they were also caught illegally in the U.S. They also admitted that there were more undocumented foreigners in the motel room.

After looking into it, the agents found seven more undocumented foreigners. They all were arrested. As the police were wrapping up their investigation, they saw the driver of the first car going back to the motel. He walked up to the room where the migrants were being held and knocked on the door.

Jesus David Reyes-Villagran allegedly told the police that the motel room was his and that he was coming back from dropping off five other undocumented foreigners at another El Paso hotel.

It is the job of Aguilar-Flores, Carrillo-Carrillo, Lopez-Acevedo, and Reyes-Villagran to bring aliens in and move them around. They could each spend up to 10 years in prison if found guilty.

The U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other legal factors will be used by a federal district court judge to decide on any sentence.

Federal officials also arrested a Honduran citizen who had been deported and convicted of crimes before being taken into federal custody in Austin on criminal charges related to his alleged illegal re-entry.

Court records show that Melvin Armando Funes-Canales was found in the Williamson County jail on or around July 16, 2024.

He had been there because he was suspected of having a controlled substance. After looking into it, Funes-Canales had been sent back to Honduras from the U.S. on or around October 9, 2020, and had also been sent back five other times.

Funes-Canales has also been found guilty of burglary, grand theft, and illegal re-entry in the past.

The charge against Funes-Canales is illegal re-entry. Funes-Canales could spend up to 10 years in prison if he is found guilty.
