Bojovic reportedly overstayed his B-2 visitor visa, and had been required to leave the country by March 31, 2015, but did not.
Per Real America’s Voice’s Ben Bergquam, Bojovic, an illegal immigrant from Montenegro, was arrested on October 15 in the Chicago suburb of Hanover Park. Bojovic reportedly overstayed his B-2 visitor visa and had been required to leave the country by March 31, 2015, but did not.
Bojovic provided his employment identification card to authorities upon his arrest, which confirmed that he was a member of the Hanover Park Police Department. He also told authorities that he had no weapons on him, but was authorized to carry a firearm while on duty. Bojovic told authorities that he became an officer in January after graduating from the police academy.
ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Chicago Field Office Director Sam Olson said in a statement, "Illegal aliens are prohibited from owning or possessing firearms — full stop. This is the second known instance in recent months of a local police department hiring an illegal alien and unlawfully issuing him a firearm while on duty in violation of federal law. It is alarming how local jurisdictions continue to disregard federal law to the detriment of their communities."
Over the summer, another illegal immigrant who obtained a job as a police officer agreed to leave the country voluntarily after being detained by ICE. Jon-Luke Evans, a Jamaican national, had been employed as a reserve officer with the Old Orchard Beach Police Department in Maine, per WMTW.
Evans was taken into custody in July after the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives told ICE that Evans had attempted to purchase a gun. ICE said that Evans lawfully entered the country at the Miami International Airport in Florida on September 24, 2023, but did not leave the country one week later when he was scheduled to depart and overstayed his visa.
