Close to home. Some think it’s just a border problem. No… it’s a national problem and it’s reached the heartland. Don’t be fooled by the article saying that the department doesn’t deal with it much. They just haven’t been caught. What isn’t surprising but disturbing was that they they had identification and tax numbers…. hmmmm.

Motter said the man who hired the men also believed they were in the U.S. legally as they had identification and tax numbers.

WAYNESFIELD — Ten illegal immigrants were transported out of Auglaize County after a routine traffic stop Saturday night by officers with the Waynesfield Police Department. The men, ranging in age from 20 to 39, were from El Salvador, Mexico and Honduras, and were traveling through the area from Lima, where they were doing roof work, to Indian Lake, where they were staying until the contract job was complete. They all listed residences in the Columbus area.

Waynesfield Police Lt. Nathan Motter said he had seen the van they were driving, which had no tail lights go through town previously when he was off duty. When he stopped it at 10:40 p.m. Saturday in the 300 block of Wapakoneta Street he got suspicious when the driver of the vehicle and passenger handed him international identification from the same country that looked completely different.
Five of the men were in the van that Motter stopped. A Honda Civic following, with another five men inside, also stopped.

After conversations with Immigration Custom Enforcement officials out of Cleveland (ICE) Motter said all 10 men were determined to be illegal aliens and were transported with the assistance of deputies from the Auglaize County Sheriff’s Office to the Auglaize County Jail, where they remained until Monday morning.
