An illegal immigrant from Guatemala who had been deported by the previous Trump administration was arrested Sunday for allegedly setting a woman on fire on the New York City subway.
The suspect, 33, has not been named publicly, but the New York Post reported that he first entered the U.S. illegally in 2018 during the first Trump administration, but was deported within days. The man then re-entered the U.S. under the Biden administration’s lax border laws, according to reporter Nick Sortor.
