St. Thomas, USVI – Customs and Border Protection officers at the Cyril E. King Airport, U.S. Virgin Islands, Saturday detained a 25-year-old male with an outstanding arrest warrant.

Foy Dion was wanted in the Virgin Islands for fraud. Once the Virgin Islands Police Department confirmed the information on the arrest warrant, Dion was turned over to a U.S. Virgin Islands Port Authority officer to complete the process.

This apprehension was a direct result of CBP’s use of name queries during primary inspections and CBP officers’ attention to detail during interviews and inspection of documents.
