"Alfredo Mancillas Jr, 31, faces charges of drunken driving after his arrest early Tuesday morning, jail records show. The Sahan Journal, a non-profit Minnesota news site, first reported Thursday that Mancillas drew attention from state police after having parked a car in a no-parking zone on a St Paul road and slumping over in the vehicle. Troopers who approached Mancillas alleged that he smelled of alcohol and that his eyes were watery and bloodshot,"
"A spokesperson for the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) which oversees CBP said in a statement that the agency's professional responsibility office was reviewing Mancillas's DWI arrest. CBP stresses honor and integrity in every aspect of our mission, the DHS statement also said. And the overwhelming majority of CBP employees and officers perform their duties with honor and distinction, working tirelessly every day to keep our country safe."
Alfredo Mancillas Jr., 31, a US Customs and Border Protection employee, was arrested in St Paul after state troopers found him slumped in a car, covered in vomit and unconscious. Troopers reported he smelled of alcohol, had watery, bloodshot eyes, failed a field sobriety test and refused a breath test. He was booked on third- and fourth-degree DWI charges and released on his own recognizance with a tentative March 24 court date. The Department of Homeland Security said its professional responsibility office is reviewing the arrest and reiterated CBP's emphasis on honor and integrity. The arrest followed a large federal immigration operation in the Twin Cities.
