Officers with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested two men on the Vineyard in September who were wanted for crimes in their home countries, according to the federal agency. 

On Sept. 17, ICE arrested a 50-year-old Salvadoran man wanted for “crimes against humanity,” and a 36-year-old Brazilian man wanted for international drug trafficking, the agency said Monday. 

ICE said it was not allowed to disclose the two men’s names, and the arrests did not appear connected. 

This is now the third ICE arrest on the Vineyard in the last two months. 

In a statement, ICE said the Salvadoran man, who was arrested in Tisbury, was wanted for “crimes against humanity” and “illegal trafficking of persons” in 2011.

The man was previously apprehended by ICE in 1994, after he allegedly unlawfully entered the country through Texas. He was ordered removed from the country by a federal judge the following year, according to ICE. 

The man, who was convicted of disorderly conduct in Maine in 2003, was arrested again by ICE in Massachusetts in 2009, and then again in 2010; he was removed from the country back to El Salvador in 2011.

“This Salvadoran fugitive is wanted by authorities in his native country to face some extremely serious and disturbing allegations,” said Patricia Hyde, ICE’s acting field office director for the Boston enforcement and removal operations division. “He attempted to hide out in Massachusetts and escape the law in his home country. He posed a substantial threat to the residents of Martha’s Vineyard.”

The Brazilian man was arrested in Oak Bluffs. He was convicted by a Brazilian court for trafficking drugs in 2012 and was sentenced to more than 10 years in prison. 

ICE has been active in the region in recent months, arresting Warley Neto, who had been indicted on child rape charges, in Edgartown in August, in addition to five men on Nantucket.
