Tucson Sector Border Patrol agents arrested two Nogales men for transporting seven illegal aliens west of Nogales, Arizona.
Last week, agents assigned to the Nogales Station observed a Ford Fusion they suspected of transporting illegal aliens. Based on reasonable suspicion, the agents performed a vehicle stop on Ruby Road, west of Nogales, to conduct an immigration inspection on the vehicle’s occupants.
Agents determined six of the passengers, four adult women and two men, all Mexican nationals, were illegally present in the country. An eighth passenger, a juvenile from Mexico, was also found to be illegally in the country.
The Ford Fusion’s driver and front passenger were brothers from Nogales. Both were arrested for human smuggling.
All seven illegal aliens, to include the juvenile, were processed for removal. Several adults from the vehicle will be used as material witnesses in a criminal case against the brothers for human smuggling.
That still doesn’t beat my personal record of 12 Illegal Aliens caught in a Ford Pinto. Circa 1991 San Diego, CA.
I wish I had a camera back them. It looked like a Super Clown Car.
