40-Year-Old Colombian Suspected of Terrorism Caught at Southern Border
Lead to Apprehension of Alleged Colombian Terror Suspect
According to Sean Hannity, Border officers in Eagle Pass, Texas caught a 40-year-old Colombian named Carlos Obed Yepez-Bedoya. They found out he might have links to terrorism. This happened on February 21st just before President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump were going to visit the southern border. They said Yepez-Bedoya was part of a group connected to a terrorist organization but they didn’t say which one. The way Yepez-Bedoya was caught shows how state and federal authorities are working together to tackle border security issues. The Texas police caught him for crossing into the US illegally. They told the Border Patrol to take him for more checking. This happened under Operation Lone Star where Texas uses its National Guard and other officers to help keep the border safe.
