After an all-night search that began March 9, Portage County sheriff’s deputies detained a 33-year-old woman they claimed is in the country illegally and will turn her over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the sheriff’s office said in a Facebook post.
According to the post, deputies stopped a vehicle on Interstate 76 in Edinburg Township on March 9 because the vehicle had expired registration tags on its plates. A deputy determined that neither of the vehicle’s occupants, identified as Jorge Gonzalez Alvarado, 31, and Ana Maria Contreras Jimenez, 33, possessed a valid driver’s license, the sheriff’s post stated.
