The deported husband of a U.S. veteran who died in Afghanistan was allowed to return from Mexico on Monday after ICE kicked him out of the country.

José Arturo González Carranza, 30, was arrested at gunpoint by officers from the immigration agency while he was driving to his welding job in Phoenix on the morning of April 8.

The Mexican national, whose 22-year-old American wife Barbara Vieyra was killed by insurgents during a combat mission in 2010 while serving in the U.S. Army, was told he would be deported last Wednesday.

However, Immigration officials allowed him to reenter on Monday following a public outcry.
