Alleged smugglers rent off-road vehicles to pick up migrants at Otay Mountain, attempt to flee Border Patrol

 
EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) – Two alleged migrant smugglers and two men hired as “lookouts” are facing federal charges in connection with an incident in which a U.S. Border Patrol agent was almost run over by fleeing off-road vehicles.

The incident occurred last Saturday on the Otay Mountain truck trail in San Diego County, Calif., near the border with Mexico.

Border Patrol surveillance camera operators tracked three all-terrain vehicles going up the mountain around 3 a.m. and turning onto a flat area where several people came out of the brush and climbed onto two of the vehicles. Court documents show one of the ATVs remained on the spot while the two others proceeded down the mountain trail.
