Robbins was arrested shortly after 8 p.m. Sunday at the San Ysidro Port of Entry. He was trying to cross the border when an officer referred him to a another area for a more thorough examination, at which point a systems check determined that Robbins was wanted by the San Diego County Sheriff's Department for a felony warrant. Robbins was then booked into jail at approximately 4 a.m. Monday and was being held on $550,000 bail.
