The Dominican Navy reports that it arrested eight people who are thought to have traveled with a group of 32 undocumented aliens headed to Puerto Rico from the eastern Dominican Republic. The arrests of the would-be immigrants came after officers of the Naval Intelligence Division (M-2) received reports about a planned illegal trip. According to their reports, the illegal travelers were planning to use Catalina island off La Romana as their point of departure. The Navy said that the operation ended when the trip was cut short by the Dominican vessel GC-102 Castor and a US Coast Guard helicopter. The illegal travelers arrested by Intelligence Division agents included Israel Guzman Paredes, Antolin Mejia Medina, Euclides Portalatin, Angel Rojas Garcia, Jhonathon Perez Rojas, Benjamin Reynoso Gomez, Jose Manuel Brito and Jose Antonio Brito. The Navy said that the detainees would be transferred to Intelligence Division headquarters in Santo Domingo East.
