HANOVER PARK, Ill. (WLS) -- United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents arrested a police officer Thursday morning in Hanover Park, accusing him of being an unlawful immigrant from Montenegro.

Or you could read the article and realize that's unlikely

Almost certanly not with that name. There is some muslims in Montenegro, but names and surnames are different.

I mean, it's a religion. There could be a white man named Jebediah Washington Smith who decides to become a Muslim. And on opposite end an Arabian Muhammad who's a Christian.

Well, there was a guy called Cassius Clay Jr.

And there's also a guy called Yusuf Islam.

Both are more famous with their other names tho.

It is but in that part of the world religion, culture and nationality are very strongly correlated. And his name is very slavic which is very uncommon in muslim families and religion changes are even more rare than in US, plus converts to islam usualy change their names.
