Saint Lawrence River: It says the Akwesasne Mohawk Police Service were then able to intercept and arrest the trio as well as a resident of Cornwall on Cornwall Island, which sits in the Saint Lawrence River on the Canadian side of the border, according to CTV. The CBSA says the Cornwall man was arrested for aiding and abetting the illegal movement of people into Canada under the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act. The Canada Border Services Agency says it got information from its U.S. counterparts on Feb. 11 that three foreign nationals were identified in Massena, N.Y., as acting in "a suspicious manner." The CBSA says it conducted surveillance on the three people with the help of its partners. The three foreign nationals were arrested for entering Canada without examination. The CBSA says the foreigners had detention reviews and admissibility hearings on Feb. 15 and 16, and are being held in custody until they can be deported. The CBSA did not disclose their nationalities or further details about them.
