Loudoun Times Mirror
Sterling, Virginia -- A search warrant served Friday night to a home on Lyndhurst Court in Sterling has resulted in the apprehension of six people, all of whom are in the country illegally, according to the Sheriff's Office.
Loudoun Sheriff's investigators, along with special agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement, arrested Rosa Dionicio-Augustino, 19, and Gilberto Henriquez-Hernandez, 23, both of Sterling, on local charges. Three other males and one female were also taken into custody on federal charges surrounding their immigration status.
The search warrant stemmed from the recent arrest of another resident of the home. Sheriff's investigators charged Inocente Dionicio-Gama, 27, with malicious wounding in an Oct. 12 assault that occurred outside a Sterling restaurant.
All seven suspects are being held without bond at the Loudoun Adult Detention Center and are awaiting deportation hearings.
Dionicio-Augustino has also been charged with obstruction of justice, and Henriquez-Hernandez was charged with child endangerment after he fled from authorities, leaving a child behind in a car.
