Staff Sgt. Juan Gabriel Orona-Rodriguez was assigned to Fort Carson, an Army post south of the nightclub in Colorado Springs, the FBI said.

A soldier present at an after-hours nightclub where more than 100 immigrants suspected of being in the U.S. illegally were taken into custody has been charged with distributing cocaine.

A staff sergeant assigned to Fort Carson allegedly sold cocaine to an undercover DEA agent days before a raid at an illegal club, court documents said.
