Five of the six criminal aliens in custody from the previous arrests are now being prosecuted . . . on charges of re-entry after deportation and document fraud; the sixth criminal alien is being prosecuted . . . on charges of false claims of U.S. citizenship. Of those arrested yesterday, all are in ICE custody and have been placed in removal proceedings.
