Francisco Serrano became a local and then national celebrity after it was discovered that he had been hiding for weeks in a local high school. He just wanted to stay in America and get a job and become a citizen. But a court ruled that he had to go back to Mexico and enter the United States legally. He left the area with lots of local support and then dropped out of sight, apparently never boarding the plane that was to take him back to Mexico. He was found
this week in Massachusetts:
Two weeks ago, police arrested him after finding him with a knife in an apartment in Boston's North End, struggling with the tenant, who was unharmed, The Boston Globe reported Thursday. He remained in Suffolk County Jail facing home invasion charges and eventual deportation.
Fortunately for him he has no criminal record and the charges will likely be reduced. But this won't help his efforts to live in this country - outside a jail cell.
