McALLEN A man from Kosovo wanted in a New York City slaying awaits extradition from South Texas.
FALFURRIAS U.S. Border Patrol agents caught a man born in Kosovo wanted in New York City for murder.
Agents encountered Arber Mustafaj along Singer Road, west of U.S. Highway 281 on Wednesday near the Falfurrias checkpoint, local Border Patrol spokesman John Lopez said.
Mustafaj, 35, claimed he was a permanent U.S. resident to agents, but could not provide documents that proved his immigration status, agents said.
Agents escorted Mustafaj to the Falfurrias checkpoint, where a search of federal databases revealed he is a permanent resident and wanted for murder by the New York City Police Department.
Mustafaj was arrested and turned over to the Brooks County Sheriff's Office pending extradition to New York.
His brother, whose name was not released, was found to be under a deportation order and was held for deportation proceedings.
The third man was in the U.S. legally and was released.
Just some good old boys from Kosovo, never meanin' no harm.....?
What in the hell were they doing wandering around rural South Texas at night?
Uh oh, those pesky Quakers are at it again,
Nothing to see here, move along.

Interesting. My next door neighbor is a Border Patrol agent who works at the Falfurrias checkpoint. I’ll have to see how her day went.
JEALOUS HUBBY SOUGHT IN DRIVE-BY

A jealous husband who saw his wife riding in another man's Mercedes opened fire on the car, wounding the driver and causing him to crash into a Bronx restaurant, police said. Police last night were searching for the suspected shooter, Arber Mustafaj, 27. Cops said he was driving his car about 7:30 p.m. yesterday when he spotted his wife in the white Mercedes, pulled up alongside the vehicle on Neill Ave. and shot the driver, with whom he had an ongoing dispute, in the face...
Mustafaj has been in trouble with the law before. He was arrested with four other suspects in 1995 in an automated-teller machine heist. The FBI at the time linked the five men to a Bronx-based crime group dubbed "the YACS," so named because the group's members hailed from Yugoslavia, Albania, Croatia and Serbia. Authorities believed the group was responsible for stealing $50 million from Long Island to California.

Arber Mustafaj Mugshot
Surprise! Who would ever have guessed with a name like Mustafaj? He’s definitely not an Amish-American.

Because we imported them back in the 1990's. They told a sad story of "persecution", had lots of drug/sex-slaving/arms-dealing money to stuff in political campaign coffers and our politicians let them in. Then they set up their Albanian Mafia outlets over here.
Tom Gambill, who used to post here on FR, was a whistleblower on the fact that the Albanian Mafia owned Kosovo, (and that's who was coming to the US) but no one wanted to hear it.
This Arber Mustafaj, was the first and he won't be the last. America went to Kosovo and now "Kosovo comes to America". Like it or not, we're all "Serbs" now!

Hiding. This guy was wanted for nine years.
Somebody or something was coming north from Mexico that night, IMO.

ps. Never hideout near a Border Patrol checkpoint.
Excellent deduction. The guy was wanted for murder anyway, so he was expendable. Who better to do border work? He's got nothing (and everything) to lose by getting caught. Only surprised that his apprehension wasn't more violent.
"ps. Never hideout near a Border Patrol checkpoint."
I'll try to remember that. ;)
Send this guy to Jorge's house, I'm sure he wouldn't mind Mustafaj's company, maybe he can get Jorge's watch back.
Give Bill Clinton the Gen.Weasley Clark Idiots Award for supporting Islamic Terrorists in Kosovo, and allowing them to immigrate to the U.S.

Funniest. Post. Ever.
LONDON - Thieves behind one of Britain’s biggest jewel heists abandoned an initial robbery attempt two days before the crime, police said.
The Metropolitan Police on Saturday released security camera images of the suspects outside Graff Diamonds in London’s Bond Street two days before the Aug. 6 robbery.
Detective Chief Inspector Pam Mace says police believe it was “more than just a practice run, and that they were planning on committing the robbery on Aug. 4.”
Police said they do not know why the heist was postponed.
Two well-dressed men walked into the store Aug. 6 armed with handguns and stole dozens of rings, bracelets, necklaces and watches with a retail value of $65 million.
A $1.65 million reward has been offered for their capture.
The same store lost jewelry worth 23 million pounds, or $38 million, in 2003 when it was robbed by Nebojsa Denic, a Kosovar Serb and a member of the notorious gang of Balkan robbers known as “the Pink Panthers.” Denic was caught and sentenced to 15 years in prison.
Britain’s Press Association news agency quoted an unnamed police source as saying that the Pink Panthers were unlikely to have been behind the latest raid.

Were Pink Panthers Behind Last Week’s Record-Breaking Gem Heist?
“The Pink Panthers, named after the movie, are said to have carried out jewelry robberies across the globe with an estimated total loot of $350 million, not including this latest robbery. The gang’s membership is believed to stand at around 200. Members speak multiple languages and many have had military training. “

Balkans’ Pink Panther jewel thieves smash their way into myth
Members of the unglamorous gang, which has hit boutiques in Paris, London and Dubai, are heroes to some in their war-ravaged native Serbia. ‘I hope you rob the U.S. Federal Reserve,’ one fan writes.
eporting from Belgrade, Serbia - So let’s get this straight. A guy in the raspberry business from western Serbia smashes and grabs his way through a heist eight time zones away in Tokyo and scoots off past shopping centers and sushi bars with a $31-million necklace known as the Countess of Vendome.
It happens.
Djordjije Rasovic graced arrest warrants, a thief with brazen nerves, part of an international Balkan crime gang known as the Pink Panthers. He and one of his accomplices, Snowy, another name too whimsical for the harsh impulses of the former Yugoslavia, brought a bit of high jinks to a land haunted by war criminals and atrocities.”
Serbs have been in the US for the last 150 years without causing even 1/10th of the problems that the Albanians and Bosnian Muslims have caused in the last 15 years. Go to "America's Most Wanted" and run a search. I used the keywords "Serb", Serbia" and came up with nothing. I ran the word, "Albania" and came up with 6 names.
The Serbian Mafia's reach doesn't make it much past Europe. But the Albanian mafia has a global reach. The Albanian & Bosnian jihadists who used the US as a safe haven, have often turned on us. We opened Pandora's box, when we invited them in. Now it is Americans who are on the defensive in their own homeland against these lunatics.
