Nigerian Illegal Immigrant Charged With Murder of 18-Year-Old UMass Dartmouth Football Player
The Gateway Pundit ^ | September 25, 2026 | Jim Hᴏft

An 18-year-old American kid is dead. Another freshman teammate is in the hospital. And the man charged with the killing should never have been here.

Federal law enforcement sources tell Fox News congressional correspondent Bill Melugin that the suspect in last weekend’s fatal stabbing of a UMass Dartmouth football player is a Nigerian national who overstayed a B-2 visitor visa, was shielded from deportation by the Biden administration in 2022, and was reportedly shielded again when the Trump administration approved another deferred-action request in October 2025.

Chukwunonso Uzoma David Uzoma Eze, 19, a UMass Dartmouth student, is charged with murder in the death of freshman running back Marvins Antoine and with the stabbing of freshman defensive back Kensley Macean.

The attack happened shortly after midnight Saturday, Sept. 19, in a Wendy’s parking lot across from Mezzo Lounge on Charles Street in Providence, Rhode Island, after an altercation that started in the club line, according to the Providence Police Department.

Antoine, 18, a Durfee High School product from the Boston area, was stabbed in the chest and pronounced dead at Rhode Island Hospital.

Macean, 19, suffered non-life-threatening wounds to the head, neck, and arm.

Police say Eze fled. Flock license-plate cameras helped track the vehicle. UMass Dartmouth campus police took him into custody.

On Monday, he pleaded not guilty to a fugitive-from-justice charge in New Bedford District Court, waived extradition, and was ordered held without bail pending transfer to Rhode Island, where prosecutors plan murder and felony assault charges.

Here is the immigration history federal sources provided to Fox News, courtesy of a DHS source, as published by Melugin:

Chukwunonso Uzoma David Uzoma Eze, a Nigerian national first entered the United States on March 18, 2015, at Boston Logan International Airport on a B-2 visitor visa. He later obtained two approved extensions of that nonimmigrant status: one filed Sept. 17, 2015, and approved Feb. 5, 2016; and another filed March 18, 2016, and approved June 8, 2016. He applied for deferred action, which was approved Sept. 21, 2022.

On Aug. 24, 2023, he applied for employment authorization. That request was rejected Sept. 25, 2023. On Feb. 10, 2025, he filed two applications: one for employment authorization based on deferred action, which remains pending; and another for deferred action, which was approved Oct. 8, 2025, and is set to expire Oct. 7, 2027. On Sept. 21, 2026, the Bristol County Sheriff’s Department in Massachusetts arrested him on a fugitive-from-justice warrant.

Read that again.

Entered on a tourist visa in 2015. Two extensions under Obama. Then he stayed. Biden’s DHS granted deferred action in September 2022, a discretionary choice to delay deportation.

It is not legal status. It is a permission slip to remain while the government looks the other way. He applied for a work permit in 2023 and was rejected.

He applied again in February 2025. Trump’s DHS approved a new deferred-action grant on October 8, 2025, good through October 2027. Eleven days before the stabbing, Massachusetts deputies picked him up on the fugitive warrant.

It's just collateral damage after all, cheap labor or bust.

Our service economy and living off of compound interest demands blood sacrifices at times.
