A four-time deportee caused a critical crash in Utah, hitting a pedestrian and fleeing the scene. The incident, involving Mexican national Maria Del Rocio Morales Ruvalcaba, has sparked renewed debate over illegal immigration and public safety.

Utah Man Injured in Hit-and-Run

On November 4, an unnamed 25-year-old man was crossing a street in Spanish Fork with friends when a minivan struck him. The driver, later identified as Morales Ruvalcaba, continued driving without stopping. As of Wednesday, the young man remained in critical condition at a local hospital.

On November 10, Spanish Fork Police arrested Morales Ruvalcaba after locating a Dodge van with significant windshield damage matching the description of the at-fault vehicle. She was booked into the Utah County Jail on a charge of Third-Degree Felony Leaving the Scene of an Accident Involving Serious Injury.

Immigration Enforcement and Controversy

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has filed a detainer request for Morales Ruvalcaba. While many Utah sheriffs cooperate with ICE, residents of Utah County have protested and caused controversy over such cooperation in the past. ICE is particularly requesting county authorities to honor their detainer request in this case.

DHS shared details about Morales Ruvalcaba’s four prior deportations, noting she illegally entered the U.S. on four separate occasions in April 2007 and was granted a voluntary return to Mexico each time. She illegally re-entered the country a fifth time at an unknown date and location. All of her claims will be heard by an immigration judge, and she will receive due process.

Illegal Alien Driving and Safety Concerns

Local outlets initially referred to Morales Ruvalcaba as a “central Utah woman” or simply as “a woman,” without disclosing her illegal status. KUTV reported that police had footage of her vehicle.

Illegal alien drivers cause hundreds of deadly crashes in America every year.

Other Recent Incidents

Notably, an illegal alien also caused a deadly crash in Missouri, injuring multiple people and killing a mother and her two young children. Ukrainian Eldar Skander was reportedly playing videos on YouTube on his tablet while driving and sped straight into other vehicles.
