- Ahmad Jamal Khamees Alhendi facing multiple charges after forcing major highway closure near Greenville
- ICE has issued detainer for suspect, whose origin and immigration status remain unclear
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has issued a detainer for a truck driver who was arrested after allegedly making a bomb threat while pulled over on I-85 in South Carolina this week, indicating he may be in the country illegally.
The busy interstate was shut down for hours on Thursday afternoon after South Carolina State Transport Police pulled over an 18-wheeler with a missing license plate in Greenville County.
During the stop, the driver reportedly claimed there was an explosive device hidden somewhere in the big rig.
“I-85 near mile marker 44 is temporarily closed out of an abundance of caution due to a bomb threat issued during a routine traffic stop this afternoon by SC Transport Police,” Gov. Henry McMaster’s office explained in a statement posted to social media at the time.
Following a SWAT raid and sweep by a bomb squad, it was determined the driver had been lying.
The suspect was taken into custody and identified as Ahmad Jamal Khamees Alhendi, a 28-year-old resident of Oak Lawn, Illinois.
He now faces multiple charges, including breach of peace of a high or aggravated nature, bomb threat, and operating an unregistered vehicle.
Additionally, ICE has lodged a detainer against Khamees Alhendi, indicating he is a non-citizen of undisclosed origin and immigration status.
“Arrest warrant for pendency of ongoing removal proceedings,” a note in his booking information reads.
“Officials mentioned that the tractor-trailer was registered to Globe Transportation out of Illinois. The company said they do not have a statement at this time, however, they did say that Alhendi was cleared to drive and that the truck was registered,” Fox Carolina reports.
Khamees Alhendi’s bond was set at $20,238 cash during a hearing on Friday.

The federal government needs to impose absolutely ruinous fines are employers and landlords who do business with illegals. No way should any of these people have a job or housing. US citizens who provide jobs or housing to illegals should be driven into bankruptcy. Someone ought to suddenly become a guy who “used to own trucking company”.

If only trucking was run by types like Sonny Pruitt now.
Even BJ McKay would be an improvement.

Updated Jerry Reed song East Bound and Down.
East bound and down, loaded up and truckin’
We gonna do what they say can’t be done
We’ve got a long way to go, and a short time to get there
I’m east bound, just watch ol’ Ahmad run
Keep your foot hard on the pedal, son, never mind them brakes.
Let it all hang out ‘cause we’ve got a bomb run to make
The Arab boys are impatient in Atlanta, and there’s illegals in Texarkana
And we’ll bring bring explosives there no matter what it takes
Old ICE has got them ears on, FBI’s hot on your trail
And they ain’t gonna rest ‘til you’re in jail
So, you gotta dodge ‘em, you gotta duck ‘em
You gotta’ keep that diesel truckin’
Put that hammer down and give it hell.
I’m east bound, just watch ol’ Ahmad run
I am east bound, just watch ol’ Ahmad run
I’m east bound and down, it’s okay.

The FBI would get involved but they’re overloaded with school board meetings.

He’s just angling for a free plane ride home.
