According to a news release from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the agency launched an internal investigation of the alleged assault in response to a report submitted by a supervisory agent at the station. The incident reportedly occurred on Jan. 30 ... County Attorney George Silva said the alleged victim was in a holding cell at the Nogales Station when someone noticed that he had a phone – a prohibited item for detainees. “This officer [Aldo F. Arteaga] walks in, takes the phone from the juvenile, then decides to punch him in the stomach,” Silva said. “And it’s videotaped.”
