COTTONWOOD, Minnesota -- Authorities have confirmed that the the driver of the van that struck the school bus that killed 4 students on Tuesday is an illegal alien.
Officials at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement are checking to see where she came from and how long she's been in Minnesota. FOX 9 has also learned that the name she gave to police, Alainiss Morales, is an alias.
23-year-old Alainiss N. Morales was taken into custody on suspicion of criminal vehicular operation. She was arrested by the State Patrol Thursday afternoon and is being held in Lyon County Jail. County Attorney Rick Maes told the Marshall Independent charges could come later Thursday or Friday.
Law enforcement had her in their cross-hairs in 2006 and now this has happened. If law enforcement and the judge had been enforcing the law this tragedy could have been completely prevented and these children would still be alive today. The employer of this illegal needs to be raked over the coals.
