During a search of a livestock trailer being pulled through a Border Patrol interior immigration checkpoint in Arizona, a suspected human smuggler made an unsuccessful attempt to flee from the scene on horseback.
The incident happened on Saturday as agents discovered seven migrants hidden in a compartment covered by bails of hay in the trailer being pulled by the alleged smuggler.
A suspected human smuggler fled on horseback after agents found a group of migrants hidden in a horse trailer. The Border Patrol operates several highway checkpoints in the Tucson Sector, including the State Route 286 checkpoint. Situated on heavily trafficked roadways, the immigration checkpoints serve to deter smugglers from using the most common routes of egress from border communities. The Border Patrol agents assigned to inspection duties at the checkpoints frequently make arrests for other crimes as well, including narcotics interdictions.
