A Coquitlam man is set to be extradited to Texas following his arrest at the Peace Arch border crossing this weekend.
The 44-year-old was detained by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials after trying to enter the U.S. on Saturday morning.
A routine inspection revealed the man was wanted on a warrant for aggravated sexual assault of a child in Texas, U.S. border officials said.
The man was handed over the Whatcom County Sheriff for extradition. His name has not been released.
