An undocumented immigrant was arrested after delivering pizza to a Brooklyn military base, Spanish-language paper El Diario first reported Tuesday.

When pizza delivery driver Pablo Villavicencio arrived at Fort Hamilton last Friday, a guard asked for identification, per The Hill. Villavicencio isn't a U.S. citizen and couldn't produce it, so the guard called Immigrations and Customs Enforcement and he was arrested, the driver's wife Sandra Chica told El Diario.
