Two men were arrested Monday after investigators said they showed up at a South Grove Street apartment in Ypsilanti, seeking to collect money owed to them, and threatened to get guns and hurt someone.

The men, ages 27 and 30, are from Mexico and await possible deportation because they are believed to be in the U.S. illegally, Ypsilanti police Det. Sgt. Troy Fulton said.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents are investigating. Police said both men were intoxicated and made threats in front of officers.
