Border Patrol agents in southern California recovered 17 illegal aliens and arrested two others after the human smugglers crashed their pickup truck.
Agents working in East County, California, were alerted to the presence of a Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck near the Mexican border. As the agents responded to the area, they observed the truck entering Interstate 8. A short pursuit ended as the driver crashed the pickup truck into a drainage ditch, according to information provided to Breitbart Texas by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials on Friday.
The incident, which occurred at about 5:30 on Thursday evening, could have been very dangerous as the bed of the pickup truck was packed with illegal aliens. The human cargo was packed in the bed of the truck under a large sheet of plywood, officials stated. None of the passengers were injured.
