Border Patrol Stops Big Human Smuggling Attempt

The Border Patrol says it stopped a major human smuggling attempt in south Texas. It happened earlier this week at a checkpoint north of Laredo when a tractor trailer didn't stop for inspection. When the agents caught up to the vehicle, they found 40 illegal immigrants inside the trailer. The migrants were from Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador. Everybody including the American driver were taken into custody.
