EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) – A driver who allegedly turned into a Burger King drive-thru to avoid the U.S. Border Patrol is facing migrant smuggling charges in Arizona.
A federal grand jury on Wednesday charged Anthony Joseph Moncivaiz with one count of conspiracy and two counts of transporting unauthorized non-citizens for profit in connection with an Oct. 19 incident off U.S. Highway 92 in Bisbee.
Court records show a U.S. Border Patrol agent on duty in Cochise County, Ariz., observed three individuals dressed in camouflage approach a neighborhood 4 miles north of the border wall. The group walked toward a car on a street at the edge of the neighborhood and got in. The agent followed the vehicle to Highway 92 and watched the driver pull into the fast-food restaurant while the passengers attempted to conceal themselves in the back seat.
