Four of 11 suspected sex offenders arrested in Indiana sting are illegal immigrants: DHS

Four out of 11 alleged sex offenders arrested during a police sting operation in Indiana are illegal immigrants from four different countries, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

The men thought they were communicating with underage girls online before driving to meet them for what they believed were sexual encounters, authorities said. Instead, they were met by undercover detectives.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has lodged detainer requests for the four suspects.
