From Fox News: U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) placed detainers on two illegal aliens from Venezuela, including one of them with probable ties to the violent Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, after they kidnapped a Washington state woman and used a power drill on her hand before shooting her in January, according to law enforcement officials.
Kevin Daniel Sanabria Ojeda, 24, and 25-year-old Alexander Moises Arnaez-Gutierrez were both charged last week with kidnapping, robbery and attempted murder in King County, Washington.
A senior ICE official confirmed to Fox News that both suspects are Venezuelan illegal immigrants, and ICE is placing detainers on both of them with local authorities.
Charging documents obtained by Fox News Digital allege that Sanabria Ojeda and Arnaez-Gutierrez kidnapped the female victim as she returned to her apartment in Burien around 10 p.m. on Jan. 21.
The two men are accused of forcing the woman into a vehicle, and during the scuffle, a gun was fired.
The King County Sheriff’s Department wrote in a report, “They used a power drill to drill into (the victim’s) hand to get access to her cell phone and bank accounts. They then threatened her by telling her they were going to kill her, kill her family, feed her to the bears and dump her body far away.”
The two illegal aliens reportedly drove the victim to Kittitas County, then shot her and left her for dead on the side of Interstate 90, on a mountain pass.
The woman pretended to be dead for about 15 minutes until her attackers left, then managed to climb over a retaining wall and flag down help and was taken to the hospital.
