Tesla CEO, Elon Musk spoke out about the harrowing incident that took place in NYC. He reported a post on X which read, “The man who set an innocent woman on fire on the New York Subway, Sebastian Zapeta, is a recent “MIGRANT” from Guatemala. The Biden regime REFUSED to deport him, and an innocent woman lost her life as a result. Mass deportations now!” Musk added, “Enough is enough!” as he shared the post.

Zapeta illegal in and out of the country

Zapeta first entered the U.S. through Arizona’s southwest border in 2018 but was deported shortly after, as reported by the New York Post. He later crossed the border again, evading federal agents and eventually making his way to New York City, though it’s unclear how long he had been in the area before the tragic attack on Sunday.

New York Police Department’s Chief of Transit, Joseph Gulotta, confirmed that Zapeta’s immigration status is being closely reviewed, with officials working to verify the details of his deportation and unlawful re-entry, as reported by Times Now.

Zapeta is currently in the police’s custody and formal charges are yet to be filed against him while the investigation into the case continues.
