The second illegal migrant arrested over the shooting of an off-duty Customs and Border Protection officer was free despite a series of arrests — and is also a suspect in a scooter robbery ring tied to nearly 30 snatch-and-grabs, sources said.
Christhian Aybar-Berroa, 22, was nabbed by ICE agents Monday following the arrest of fellow Dominican Republic national Miguel Francisco Mora Nunez, 21, for allegedly ambushing the agent and his female companion in Manhattan’s Fort Washington Park.
Mora Nunez is accused of shooting the 42-year-old officer — who fired back with his own gun during the confrontation Saturday — while Aybar-Berroa allegedly helped with the robbery, officials said.

Aybar-Berroa entered the country illegally in 2022 during the Biden administration and was released on parole ahead of his immigration hearing {snip}
He then made it to New York City, where he was cuffed five times by NYPD after a federal immigration judge ordered his deportation in January 2023 — and was released each time, sources said.

Mora Nunez also racked up several arrests in New York City and elsewhere in the US before the shooting, but his alleged crimes — unlike Aybar-Berroa’s — appeared more violent.
He was nabbed twice days apart in August 2024 for allegedly assaulting a pregnant woman and threatening to kill another migrant with a machete.
Mora Nunez was also wanted on kidnapping and weapons charges out of Massachusetts related to a pawn shop robbery, sources have said.
