TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — A man from Guatemala who was convicted in Tennessee for rape of a child in 2006 and aggravated sexual battery in 2008 has been arrested at the southern Arizona border. Border Patrol agents assigned to the Tucson Station say 42-year-old Artemio Raul Escobar-Ramirez was taken into custody last Saturday in the mountains west of Arivaca after he illegally entered the U.S. Agents discovered Escobar-Ramirez' criminal history while he was being processed. They say records also show Escobar-Ramirez previously was removed from the U.S. in 2014 after his last incarceration.
