SAN DIEGO – A suspected gunman in what was described as “one of the most heinous mass killings in recent times” was arrested Thursday in Los Angeles and turned over to Mexican authorities Friday night at the U.S.-Mexican border in San Ysidro under “extraordinary” security, authorities said. Jesus Ruben Moncada, 33, a Mexican national, is wanted in a 1998 drug-related massacre near Ensenada in which 19 men, women and children were taken from their homes and shot to death execution-style.

He was arrested Thursday night on immigration violations at his home in east Los Angeles by officers with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the U.S. Marshals Service, according to a statement from ICE. He was taking out the trash at the time and did not resist arrest.
Moncada agreed to return voluntarily to Mexico, not knowing immigration officials knew he was a suspect in the 1998 slayings, authorities said. He was met across by the border by a force of several hundred.
