A native of Honduras who was living in the U.S. and deported in 2018 has been arrested for causing a fatal wreck in Arkansas last week.
A 30-year-old native of Honduras who had illegally been living in the U.S. has been charged in a fatal wreck that killed an Arkansas woman earlier this month. Maynor Yair Sorto-Herrera was arrested on Sept. 9 by the Arkansas State Police for the crash that occurred the morning prior. State police say Sorto-Herrera was driving a 2008 Ford F150 when it crossed into the opposite side of the roadway before striking a 2016 Honda CRV head on, killing Jennifer Ann Morton, 48, of Little Rock.
In October 2018, Sorto-Herrera was arrested by U.S. Border Patrol near Laredo, Texas. He was removed from the U.S. and taken back to Honduras on Nov. 5, 2018. Authorities are unsure when he returned to the U.S. He is being held for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. According to a police news release, Morton worked as a respiratory therapist at Arkansas Children’s Hospital in their Infant Toddler Unit.
