WHEELING, West Virginia -- A total of eight immigrants have been arrested over the past two days for suspicion of being in the United States illegally.
The driver of a 1999 silver Chevrolet truck, Jaime Cruz, 49, was arrested Tuesday in Ohio County, along with Hector Lucio, 33, Evodio Vasquez, 19, and Lazaro Morales, 22, for reportedly being in the country illegally.
Ohio County Sheriff’s deputies were traveling behind the truck when they noticed the driver turn from Fort Henry Road onto Dallas Pike Road without signaling. Deputies stopped the vehicle at the intersection of Dallas Pike Road and West Alexander Road. Cruz showed deputies his North Carolina driver’s license and reportedly admitted to being in the country illegally. Two of the other passengers were only able to supply deputies with Mexican voter registration cards, while one had no form of identification.
