Immigration detainer filed for two men in fatal New Braunfels crash

Original: DHS: Immigration detainer filed for 2 men accused of causing fatal New Braunfels crash

Department of Homeland Security officials say immigration detainers have been filed for two men accused of causing a fatal crash in New Braunfels, Texas. The detainers mean federal authorities are asking to be notified before the men are released from local custody, so they can potentially take them into immigration enforcement. The case has drawn attention locally, with immigration status becoming part of the discussion around the deadly wreck.

Why now: The combination of a fatal crash and the men's immigration status makes the case politically charged and locally significant.
