ICE Arrests Vietnamese Man Released from Prison for 1996 Texas Murder
Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested a Vietnamese illegal immigrant after his release from prison for murdering a Texas woman 30 years ago.
Nahn Tu Hoang killed then-32-year-old Sarah "Kathy" Arceneaux at her home in Port Arthur, Texas, on Feb. 29, 1996, when he shot her five times, according to ICE.
She was killed when Hoang and a group of friends went out drinking and decided to rob homes in the Port Arthur area, the agency said.
Hoang got access to a .22-caliber rifle, and the group went on a shooting spree firing shots at dogs and homes.
According to court documents, "Hoang testified that as he was walking to the front of the house, he was startled by a woman leaning over her dog. Hoang testified he was scared and started shooting. Hoang shot the woman five times, killing her."
ICE called it a "horrific, tragic story" in a post on X announcing the arrest.
