Jailed British tourists entered US 'deliberately'
16 October 2019
A British family detained in the US after crossing the border from Canada intentionally entered the country illegally, officials have said.
They said the vehicle was captured on video "slowly and deliberately" driving through a ditch to enter the US.
Two adults in the vehicle had previously been denied travel authorisation to the US, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said.
One couple involved claimed the group had crossed the border accidentally.
