New York City - In a shocking incident, an illegal Guatemalan migrant is accused of setting a woman on fire on a New York City subway, leading to her tragic death. The accused, who has not yet been charged, was previously deported but managed to re-enter the US and integrate into the Big Apple shelter system, sources revealed.
The suspect first crossed the US border illegally at Arizona in 2018 but was apprehended and deported shortly after. Despite this, he managed to evade federal agents and make his way back into the country, eventually reaching New York City. The timeline of his stay in the city before the horrific attack on the F train remains unclear.
This incident has raised serious concerns about the effectiveness of border security and the challenges of tracking illegal migrants who re-enter the country after deportation. The authorities are currently investigating the case, and the public awaits further details on the legal proceedings against the accused.
