LOS ANGELES, CA - U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) Los Angeles successfully completed the transfer of an El Salvador fugitive alien removal (FAR) via ICE Air Operations (IAO) charter, June 9.

On Dec. 2, 2011, Rodriguez-Vasquez illegally entered the United States near Campo, California, without being admitted or paroled by an immigration officer. He was encountered by U.S. Border Patrol (USBP), issued an expedited removal order, and removed from the U.S. On Dec. 6, 2011, Rodriguez-Vasquez was encountered a second time by USBP after illegally re-entering the U.S., near Naco, Arizona.
