ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS SUSPECTED OF SHOOTING AT
STATE TROOPER ARRESTED
On Monday, the Georgia State Patrol announced that three suspects accused of firing several shots at one of their troopers over the weekend, were all in custody. Troopers were pursuing the Honda Civic carrying the three suspects for firing at another vehicle on I-75 and it was during that pursuit that the suspects fired several shots at the officer. The suspects eventually jumped out and ran from the car while continuing to fire at the officer again who finally began returning fire.
Though the officer was not hurt, local sheriff and police departments continued their search for the suspects and had them all in custody by dinnertime on Monday. Arturo Ramires, Salvado Vera and Edgar Ortega are now facing charges of aggravated assault on a police officer and traffic offenses. All three are illegal immigrations currently being held on immigration detainers.
PENNSYLVANIA BILL WOULD CRACK DOWN ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION
Pennsylvania’s State Government Committee approved the Professional Licensees Illegal Employment Act, which would revoke the professional license of anyone who hires illegal immigrant workers and penalizes first-time violators. Supporters of the proposed law argue it will help open up jobs currently filled with illegal immigrants to legal residents and U.S. citizens. Opponents of the bill argue it could jeopardize the state’s large hospitals or universities and even large chains of barbershops.
