Honduras Catches 5 Syrians On Way To U.S. With Stolen Greek Passports

Five Syrians have been charged with falsifying documents after Honduras caught them trying to enter the Central American country using stolen Greek passports.

A Honduran law enforcement spokesman said the men were detained on Tuesday at the Tegucigalpa international airport after a heads-up from Interpol. The spokesman said the international organization followed the group from Syria, to Lebanon and Turkey, then on to Brazil, Argentina, Costa Rica and Honduras.

Officials are downplaying the incident, saying there is no indication that the men were suspected of anything except carrying stolen documents to the Central American nation. h/t fox4news

The spokesman confirmed that the men were planning to travel to the United States.
