Citizen’s arrest is generally pretty narrow in what / when it allows, even with the added protections to the process shopkeepers privilege grants to buisnesses.
The major hurdle is in most states you have to have witnessed the offense occur, (or a similarly high bar of burden of proof) or and in most states it must be a felony they commited.
Illegal immigracommitted. Only misdemeanor, unless someone has committed the offense multiple times. (Illegal reentry)
So in most states, the only way one could make a valid citizen’s arrest of an illegal immigrant would be if you litterally watched them sneak over the border multiple times.
