(Fox) A tweet by a top Border Patrol official identifying a “potential terrorist” captured at the U.S.-Mexico border has now been deleted, with Customs and Border Protection (CBP) saying it was deleted because it contained “law enforcement sensitive information” and violated protocols.
Yuma Sector Chief Patrol Agent Chris Clem tweeted on Dec. 20 that agents in the sector had “apprehended a potential terrorist who illegally entered the U.S. from Mexico.”
“The 21-year-old migrant from Saudi Arabia is linked to several Yemeni subjects of interest,” he tweeted.
However, since then the tweet has been deleted. CBP Public Affairs Assistant Commissioner Luis Miranda said in a statement that the tweet was deleted because “it contained law enforcement sensitive information, violating agency protocols.”
