I realize it's not necessarily indicative of anything, but it's tough to believe that an illegal immigrant (or any immigrant from a non-white country) would be named Kevin. I have a feeling this scumbag was born and raised right here in the USA.
Possible, but typically coverage of police reports uses a person's legal name rather than a Romanized nickname. You tend to see a lot of that in the Chinese and Middle-Eastern immigrant communities. For example, a coworker of mine's legal name is Yusef, but he goes by Joe. I'm assuming the thought process was Yusef --> Joseph --> Joe, but I've never asked him about it.
"It is the Arabic equivalent of the Hebrew name Yosef and the English name Joseph. Yesuf is a cognate Ethiopian name, derived from the Hebrew and Arabic origin."

True, or Kevin isn't his real name
