U.S. Border Patrol agents working in the Laredo Sector in South Texas found 22 illegal aliens trapped inside the trailer of an 18-wheeler. The aliens were being smuggled but had no means of escaping the trailer or getting air or water when needed.

The incident occurred on Monday evening at the U.S. Border Patrol Checkpoint on Interstate 35 between Laredo and San Antonio. A K-9 agent assigned to the checkpoint alerted to the presence of either drug or human smuggling in the trailer.

Agents had the driver move the trailer to the secondary inspection area. Agents opened the rear door of the trailer and discovered 22 people who were being smuggled into the U.S. from Mexico and Central America. Some of the trapped immigrants required medical attention for dehydration and heat exposure. Temperatures on Monday were in the high 90s in that area.
