A tweet by a top Border Patrol official identifying a 'potential terrorist' captured at the U.S.-Mexico border has now been deleted, with Customs and Border Protection saying it was deleted because it contained 'law enforcement sensitive information' and violated protocols.
"The 21-year-old migrant from Saudi Arabia is linked to several Yemeni subjects of interest," he tweeted.
"All individuals encountered at or between U.S. ports of entry are screened and vetted against a broad range of law enforcement and intelligence information to determine if they pose a threat to national security or public safety, consistent with the law," the statement said. It was not clear what information had been deemed law enforcement sensitive. The move came after the Saudi Embassy said in a statement that "[b]ased on the engagement with the relevant U.S authorities on this matter, the Embassy confirms that the individual mentioned here is not a Saudi citizen."
A CBP spokesperson said that the news release "was not properly reviewed and contained certain disclosure and policy information related to national security that required CBP to remove it from our website."
