He was then taken into custody and later charged with carjacking. The 21-year-old man is being held without bond, court records say. Authorities say the suspect entered the U.S. as a ‘gotaway’ at an unknown date and location. The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement placed a detainer request for him to be handed over to immigration authorities upon his release from local custody.
