RAEFORD, North Carolina -- Raeford police have shut down an operation that allegedly sold fake driver's licenses and Social Security cards to illegal immigrants that seemed so authentic that employees often never know the truth, they said.
Five illegal immigrants from Mexico, were arrested over the weekend after authorities received an anonymous tip last week. They face 270 counts of counterfeit and forgery charges.
Quintin Sanchez Rodriguez, 20, Gabriel Canuto Marcelino, 41, Jose Manuel Sosa Godinez, 26, Dionicio Hernandez, 32, and Juan Robles Mendez, 23, are all in the Hoke County Jail and are expected to be deported to Mexico, authorities said.
