WESTERLY, RI (WPRI) - Westerly police have arrested a woman who they say has been living in the country illegally for more than a decade.
The Westerly Sun reports that officers arrested 53-year-old Luz Maria Perez-Acevedo Monday after a warrant was issued for her.
She owns an Ashaway antiques shop and a housecleaning service in Westerly.
Immigration officials say she has been living under a false name.
She was previously deported in 1999 and is now in federal custody.
