ICE Arrest Illegal Alien Driving an 18-Wheeler with New York Commerical Driver’s License Issued to “No Name”

 DHS is working with Department of Transportation, state and local partners to get illegal alien truck drivers off our highways

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) today announced the arrest of an illegal alien, Anmol Anmol, who was issued a commercial driver's license (CDL) by the state of New York to “No Name Given Anmol.” 

On September 23, 2025, the Oklahoma Highway Patrol encountered Anmol during a routine inspection at a truck scale on I-40. Record checks conducted by ICE revealed Anmol is an illegal alien from India. ICE arrested him and placed him in removal proceedings.  

He entered the U.S. illegally in 2023 and was released by the Biden administration into the country.  

The arrest was part of a successful three-day enforcement operation on targeted threats to public safety along I-40 in Oklahoma. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Oklahoma Highway Patrol’s operation was made possible by Oklahoma's 287(g) partnership. 

“Allowing illegal aliens to obtain commercial driver’s licenses to operate 18-wheelers and transport hazardous materials on America’s roads is reckless and incredibly dangerous to public safety. Thanks to the successful 287g partnership of ICE and Oklahoma Highway Patrol, Anmol Anmol is no longer posing a threat to drivers,” said Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. “New York is not only failing to check if applicants applying to drive 18-wheelers are U.S. citizens but even failing to obtain the full legal names of individuals they are issuing commercial drivers’ licenses to. DHS is working with our state and local partners to get illegal alien truck drivers who often don’t know basic traffic laws off our highways.” 

In September, Marcus Coleman spoke out about ICE’s arrest of an illegal alien who caused a multi-vehicle wreck while driving an 18-wheeler in California, leaving his 5-year-old daughter, Dalilah with critical, life altering injuries. In August, ICE lodged an arrest detainer for a criminal illegal alien—Harjinder Singh— following his arrest for three counts of vehicular homicide while driving a semi-truck in Florida.

DHS law enforcement is protecting American communities every day from another senseless tragedy like this taking place in another town, to another family.
