Mexican authorities said Wednesday they had arrested a man in northern Mexico in the weekend killing of U.S. Border Patrol agent Luis Aguilar.
Jesus Navarro Montes, 22, was arrested in the northern state of Sonora on Wednesday, said a spokesman for Mexico’s federal Attorney General’s office who spoke on condition of anonymity in line with department policy.
Navarro was transported to the city of Mexicali in Baja California after he told Mexican authorities he ran over Aguilar on Saturday, the spokesman said.
Navarro Montes had previously been arrested and imprisoned for transporting 10 undocumented immigrants to the United States, Mexican authorities said.
