Leonel Moreno, a Venezuelan migrant and social media influencer, was arrested on potential federal firearms charges.
Moreno gained notoriety for videos encouraging illegal immigration and squatting in U.S. homes, boasting about receiving government benefits.
ICE arrested Moreno in Gahanna, Ohio, after he failed to report for required check-ins, marking him as an 'absconder'.
His social media accounts were removed following his arrest, but he continues to generate income through other platforms.
Federal authorities are considering charges under the Gun Control Act, which prohibits parolees from handling firearms or ammunition.
