Terror suspect arrested near Canadian border

 Fox News:

Federal authorities believe a Jordanian migrant caught trying to enter the U.S. through its northern border is a terrorist, according to ICE Enforcement Removal Operations in Seattle.

Mohammed Hasan Abdellatif Albana, 41, was captured near the northern border of Lynden, Washington, the agency said in a Wednesday press release. It is unclear when or where he snuck into the country.

A U.S. immigration official identified Albana as a "known or suspected terrorist," the agency said.

Albana was sent back to Jordan on November 15 after immigration proceedings, per the agency.

"ERO Seattle is committed to the removal of noncitizens who pose a risk to the national security of the U.S. Our officers perform these removals dutifully as a part of a federal law enforcement effort to protect Pacific Northwest Communities," said ERO Seattle Field Office Director Drew H. Bostock.

During the Biden administration, Border Patrol agents have intercepted 300 migrants whose names appear on the terror watchlist crossing the country's northern and southern borders, per Customs and Border Patrol data.

The suspect may have tried to enter near Seattle thinking there would be less of a chance of being caught in that area. With the Biden open borders policy there is no telling how many terrorist gotaways have entered the country across the Canadian and Mexican borders.
