Before MURPHY, ARNOLD, and BENTON, Circuit Judges.
                           ___________

PER CURIAM.

      Guatemalan citizen Carlos Humberto Vargas Barrios petitions for review of an
order of the Board of Immigration Appeals, which affirmed an immigration judge’s
decision to deny asylum and withholding of removal. After careful review, this court
concludes that the denials of asylum and withholding of removal are supported by
substantial evidence. See Khrystotodorov v. Mukasey, 

, 781 (8th Cir.
2008). This court denies the petition. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
