EL PASO, Texas – U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers working at the Paso Del Norte border crossing apprehended a man with an outstanding warrant for indecency with a child out of the Henderson County Sheriff’s Office in Athens, Texas.

On April 23, CBP officers encountered a 68-year-old male Mexican national arriving from Mexico via pedestrian. Primary system queries by CBP officers revealed an outstanding warrant for indecency with a child. The individual was secured and escorted to secondary for further inspection where biometric verification confirmed his identity along with the active warrant for indecency with a child out of the Henderson County Sheriff’s Office in Athens, Texas.
