Two Mexican nationals have been arrested in Texas after they allegedly attempted to enter the U.S. with fraudulent credit cards that could be tied to the massive Target data breach.

Officers with U.S. Customs and Border Protection arrested Mary Carmen Vaquera Garcia and Daniel Dominguez Guardiola, both of Monterrey, Mexico, on Sunday at a bridge connecting Mexico and the U.S., according to a news release.

These two fugitives were detected by our CBP frontline officers due to our ability to query everyone seeking to enter the United States at our ports of entry, said Efrain Solis Jr., Port Director, Hidalgo/Pharr/ Anzalduas, in a statement. Having access to law-enforcement databases allows us to apprehend outstanding fugitives for other federal, state and local law enforcement agencies.
