U.S. immigration officials say a man suspected in a pair of Dallas-area killings was in the country illegally after three deportations to Mexico.
Silvestre Franco Luviano was arrested Tuesday at his relatives' apartment in Georgetown, about 25 miles north of Austin.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said in a statement Wednesday that an immigration detainer has been placed on the 40-year-old Mexican national. He remains in the Williamson County Jail in Georgetown on a murder warrant in the Sunday night slaying of a motorist in Dallas. He's also a suspect in the slaying that same night of a man at a Cedar Hill gas station.
Georgetown police also have filed vehicle burglary charges against him.
ICE says he was deported in June 1996, October 2009 and March 2014.
