(AP) – An Ecuadorean immigrant who was held for deportation after delivering pizza to a Brooklyn Army installation is at home on Long Island after an emotional reunion with his family.

Sandra Chica told Newsday on Wednesday there were tears and kisses when her husband, Pablo Villavicencio (vee-uh-vih-SEHN'-see-oh), walked through their door late Tuesday. The couple has two daughters, ages 2 and 4.
  
Villavicencio was arrested June 1 after a routine background check during the pizza delivery revealed an arrest warrant for immigration law violations.
  
A District Court judge said he can remain in the United States while seeking legal status. The judge said Villavicencio has no criminal history, has paid his taxes and has worked hard to provide for his family.
