Laredo police and the U.S. Border Patrol discovered a stash house that was operated by a man who worked for a human smuggling organization, according to court documents.
Authorities said they found 14 immigrants who had crossed the border illegally inside a home in the 300 block of Esperanza Drive. A criminal complaint filed Oct. 7 identified him as Ricardo Hernandez. He was charged with harboring illegal immigrants.
On Oct. 3, LPD narcotics officers requested assistance from Border Patrol regarding a home on Esperanza that was possibly used for harboring immigrants, according to court documents.
