Border Patrol Employee Arrested in Minnesota

Minnesota state police arrested a U.S. Customs and Border Patrol employee in St. Paul upon finding the man slumped over his steering wheel while “covered in vomit.”

At 3:25 a.m. on Tuesday, a Minnesota state trooper found 31-year-old Alfredo Mancillas Jr. of Corpus Christi, Texas, passed out at the wheel in the Hamline-Midway neighborhood, according to charges filed by the St. Paul City Attorney’s Office.

The story was first reported by Sahan Journal, a nonprofit news organization in Minnesota.

Police say Mancillas failed a field sobriety test and refused to take a breathalyzer test, after which he was arrested and booked at the Ramsey County jail. He has been charged with 3rd degree and 4th degree driving while impaired.

Sahan Journal asked the Department of Homeland Security what role Mancillas serves in Border Patrol, but the department declined to answer.

and they arrest one agent — ONE — for DUI.

I'm not complaining, it just seems like cops have a lot more offenses to work with.

WTF is some dipshit from that shithole "Corpse Crispy" doing in Minnesota?

It's almost like the Confederacy won the war.

It's becoming more and more obvious that sane and decent Americans are going to have to, once again, beat the shit out of these "Slave Power" shitholes.

This time, let's not fuck up the reconstruction.
