HTN: Jamaican Arrested at Peace Bridge

A Jamaican national and convicted felon who had been deported from the U.S. a decade ago was arrested Monday when he tried to reenter the country at the Peace Bridge. Forty-six-year-old Winston Anthony Cargill presented a passport baring the name Alfonso Dickerson. Cargill has been charged with making a false citizenship claim, attempting to illegally reenter after deportation and misuse of a passport. He was deported back in March of 1999 after authorities arrested him in a Virginia drug case in 1996. He is being held at the Buffalo Federal Detention Center in Batavia.
