Warrant confirms man detained while on way to hospital with pregnant wife is wanted for murder in Mexico
 This story got tons of sob-story airplay this weekend, even after the murder charge was released. CBS8 in San Diego totally blew it on this. Bottom line: Murder warrant in Ol' Messico, he and wife are illegal, 5 anchor babies, and scheduled caesarean for their 6th. SPIT[San Diego Union Tribune] An immigrant in the U.S. illegally who was detained by federal officers in San Bernardino last week while heading to the hospital with his pregnant wife is one of three men listed in an arrest warrant for a 2006 murder in Mexico. Joel Arrona-Lara is wanted in connection with the killing of Miguel Ángel Morales Rodríguez, alias "El Garcia," according to the arrest warrant, which was provided by a law enforcement official who is not authorized to speak publicly about the case. The warrant includes photos of Arrona-Lara, as well as his wife’s name and those of his parents. The other two men listed in the warrant are Julio Cesar Arrona-Lara, alias "El Chikis," and Roberto Arrona-Lara, alias "El Rigo." All men share identical surnames, but their relationship is unclear. The warrant did not detail the circumstances behind the murder, but a 2014 news release from the Guanajuato attorney general's office said an arrest warrant had been issued for Julio Cesar Arrona-Lara in connection to a 2006 homicide. It accused Julio Arrona-Lara of beating Rodríguez on March 17, 2006. The man later died from his injuries. It is unclear what role the other two men, including Joel Arrona-Lara, might have played. Officers with Immigrant and Customs Enforcement’s Fugitive Operations team in Los Angeles received the request for collaboration and assistance in Arrona-Lara’s arrest from Guanajuato’s attorney general on July 24, according to the agency. Emilio Amaya Garcia, Arrona-Lara’s legal representative, said that in interviews with Arrona-Lara, he denied being involved in any problems in Mexico. "It seems like there are members of his family who were, but he said he was never arrested or detained," Garcia said. "He doesn’t know of a reason why he would have an arrest warrant in Mexico." Joel Arrona-Lara was heading to the hospital with his wife, Maria del Carmen Venegas, on Wednesday for her scheduled caesarean section when he was apprehended by Immigration and Custom Enforcement agents. Security video obtained by KCBS-TV shows two SUVs blocking the couple’s vehicle as they tried to park at a gas station Wednesday. Venegas said ICE agents emerged from the vehicles and asked for their identification. She pulled out her ID, but her husband said he had left his at home. Venegas told KCBS that agents asked her husband to exit the vehicle. They searched the car for weapons, and the video shows two agents alongside Arrona-Lara with his hands cuffed behind his back.
