America’s border has been ‘so porous,’ we have no idea who is in this country: John Fabbricatore
Colorado congressional candidate John Fabbricatore discusses the latest news in Aurora as the community continues to grapple with the migrant surge.
A Peruvian illegal immigrant has been arrested after allegedly abducting a high school student in Manassas, Virginia, as she was walking to school, according to police.
The Manassas Police Department said 23-year-old Jesus Enrique Ramirez Cabrera was arrested on Friday and charged with abduction, robbery, impersonation of law enforcement and petit larceny.
Police received a call from a resident who said they located a girl in distress near the intersection of Quarry Road and Zebedee Street.
When officers arrived, they learned an unidentified man driving a red Jeep SUV – possibly a Patriot or Commander – approached the teenager as she was walking to school on Clover Hill Road.

The girl alleged that the suspect identified himself as a police officer and told her to get into the vehicle. He then allegedly exited the vehicle, grabbed the teenager’s arm, put her in the front passenger seat and drove away.
Once the suspect reached Quarry Road, the girl was able to get out of the vehicle, she told police.
Police first reported they were searching for a Hispanic man who was about 40 years old with black hair and a beard.
