ICE fugitive with Oregon license in fatal Boise crash
Boise police arrested Elvin Elgardo Ramos-Caballero on Nov. 11, 2025 after his pickup struck and killed 8-year-old Mora Gerety as he turned at an intersection; he was driving on an Oregon-issued license despite an outstanding ICE warrant and a 2019 in‑absentia removal order. A DHS assistant secretary condemned the case and a Florida congressman cited it while pressing for a federal crackdown on state policies that allow undocumented drivers to obtain licenses.
