A human smuggler was caught after Border Patrol agents immobilized his vehicle.
According to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Tucson Sector Border Patrol agents arrested a U.S. citizen and two Mexican nationals after they attempted to flee from agents near Sonoita, Arizona, on state Route 82 on February 4, 2025.
Agents from the Sonoita Station attempted a vehicle stop on a black GMC Yukon around noon. Failing to yield, the vehicle continued eastbound on Route 82 before being disabled by a vehicle immobilization device deployed by additional agents. Its three occupants then fled on foot.
An air asset from CBP Air and Marine Operations maintained visual contact of the individuals, helping agents on the ground quickly locate and arrest all three.
The subjects were transported to a Border Patrol facility. The U.S. citizen driver faces prosecution for alien smuggling, and both Mexican nationals face prosecution for illegal entry into the United States.
“This is another example of how reckless criminals value monetary gain over human life and endanger the American public,” said Tucson Sector Chief Patrol Agent Sean L. McGoffin. “Tucson Sector Border Patrol remains vigilant and ready to defend our nation’s borders to uphold our American way of life.”
Great Job! by the CBP, it’s about time that the CBP did its job, not like Joe Biden who is a Human Trafficker transporting his illegals on Airplanes.
