LUKEVILLE, Ariz. — U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents in Arizona say they arrested a man wanted for jumping bail in an Oklahoma sexual battery case when he tried to re-enter the country from Mexico.
A news release from the agency Tuesday says 50-year-old Cesar Lira Gonzalez was stopped at the Lukeville port of entry as he returned from a popular tourist destination called Puerto Penasco, or Rocky Point.
A check found Lira was a U.S. citizen and wanted on a $30,000 warrant issued in Delaware County, Oklahoma. He was wanted for jumping bail on a felony sexual battery charge.
Lira was turned over to sheriff’s deputies in Tucson, Arizona, while he awaits extradition
