Illegal Pakistani truck driver arrested in US, three years after killing Maryland man in wrong-way crash

Illegal Pakistani truck driver arrested in US, three years after killing Maryland man in wrong-way crash

Pakistani truck driver Dawood Hussain, illegally staying in the US, arrested three years after killing a Maryland man in a roadcrash.

A Pakistani man has finally been caughter by the authorities in the US, three years after he caused a fatal crash that killed a Maryland man in 2023. The arrest, however, was not done by the law enforcement but by the immigration who nabbed Dawood Hussain, a Pakistani national, in March. He was driving a tractor-trailer when he allegedly drove in the wrong way along a Pennsylvania highway and crashed into the vehicle of Hendry Tamarez Nunez.Both drivers tried to prevent the head-on collision, but Nunez’s car spun, struck a guardrail, and then went down an embankment and rolled into a tree. The engine caught fire, and Nunez died at the scene. Hussain’s tractor-trailer had stopped in the middle of I-83 after being damaged in the crash.Hussain was charged with a third-degree felony count of homicide by vehicle in 2025. But he was not in the custody of the police. The USCIS alerted the ICE as Hussain had an interview with the immigration officials in Virginia. As he arrived for the interview on March 13, deportation officers arrested him without any incident, Daily Caller reported. The USCIS said Hussain had been living in the country illegally.“Under President Trump’s leadership, USCIS remains committed to safeguarding our communities by helping to ensure dangerous illegal aliens are removed from our country, as well as supporting the president’s call for even tougher measures to prevent future truck tragedies,” USCIS spokesperson Matthew Tragesser said question why an illegal alien was operating an 80,000-pound tractor-trailer on American roads. In the October 2023 incident, Hussain disregarded a wrong-way sign and a one-way indicator sign and drove his truck onto I-83 south and accelerated to 44mph northbound on a southbound lane.The victim, Nunez, was a naturalized US citizen and a father of two.
