Missouri police have arrested Jose Barrera, an illegal immigrant, for stabbing two people at a laundromat on Sunday. Both victims suffered non-life-threatening injuries.
Barrera attacked the first victim after the pair engaged in a verbal exchange at Highlander Laundry in O’Fallon, Mo. Using a pocketknife hidden in his sock, Barrera stabbed the first victim in the back, and when the second victim tried to intervene, Barrera stabbed him in the back as well.

Caroline DowneyThe Department of Homeland Security has issued a detainer on Barrera, the O’Fallon Police Department said on Tuesday, “recognizing him as an undocumented immigrant who entered the United States through Eagle Pass, TX in 2021.”
A prosecuting attorney for the county of St. Charles issued warrants against Barrera for two counts of first-degree assault and two counts of armed criminal action.
This weekend’s laundromat stabbing comes after a string of violent incidents perpetrated by illegal immigrants. Jose Antonio Ibarra, an illegal immigrant from Venezuela, was charged with 22-year-old Laken Riley’s murder in February. Ibarra illegally entered the country through Texas in 2022 and was arrested in New York shortly after for endangering a child, but was released before ICE could issue a detainer.
