The Department of Homeland Security is seeking to revoke the green cards of two Dominican nationals charged in a deadly Connecticut home invasion, Fox News Digital has learned.
On Thursday, DHS said suspects Ivan Antonio Barias-Florimon, 24, and Stuar Jose Lopez-Reyes, 25, are from the Dominican Republic and referred to each man as a "criminal alien."
Investigators say the Dominican duo broke into a Milford, Connecticut beach house and gunned down a couple. Fredrick Werner, 69, died of multiple gunshot wounds, and his wife is still in the hospital recovering from a gunshot wound to the head.
The deadly home invasion happened on June 3.
The two suspects were arrested days apart after law enforcement secured warrants for their arrests on July 28. U.S. Marshals, along with Milford and New Haven police, arrested Lopez-Reyes two days later.
On Tuesday, the U.S. Marshals New York/New Jersey Regional Fugitive Task Force (NYNJRFTF) lawful permanent resident status in October 2022 during the Biden administration.
"Possessing a green card is a privilege, not a right," DHS said. "Under our nation's laws, our government has the authority to revoke a green card if our laws are broken and abused."
