U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has arrested a police officer with the Hanover Park Police Department who federal officials say has been living in the country illegally for nearly a decade.
According to the Department of Homeland Security, Radule Bojovic, a native of Montenegro, was taken into custody during a “targeted enforcement action.” DHS said Bojovic entered the United States on a B-2 tourist visa and overstayed it after it expired in 2015.
“What kind of police department gives criminal illegal aliens badges and guns?” DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement. “It’s a felony for aliens to even possess a firearm.”
