Summerdale, Ala. (WDNews) – U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has lodged an immigration detainer against Javier Lopez Tinoco, a 20-year-old Honduran national, following a violent stabbing during a public soccer game in Baldwin County.

According to local reports, the Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office charged Lopez Tinoco with attempted murder after he allegedly stabbed a man three times on July 19, 2025, before fleeing the scene. He was arrested ten days later and was also found with four bags of cocaine.

Lopez Tinoco had previously been arrested in 2024 for public intoxication. Following his recent arrest, ICE acted quickly to prevent his release and ensure he remains in custody for both criminal and removal proceedings.

“A man was nearly KILLED because this Honduran illegal alien decided to go on a stabbing spree,” said Assistant Secretary McLaughlin. “ICE lodged a detainer to ensure this criminal will never be loose in American neighborhoods again.”

Victims of crimes involving illegal aliens can contact ICE’s Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement (VOICE) Office at 1-855-488-6423.
