Police are looking for two men on the loose who jumped out of an SUV that was suspected to be heading to a drop house.

One of the men is suspected of being a human smuggler.

Police pulled over a Ford Expedition that was speeding near the I-10 and Chandler Boulevard Friday. Four people were inside who are believed to be undocumented. Two were arrested while the other two fled on foot, according to Bart Graves with DPS.

"One of the two we have in custody has injuries sustained as a result of aggravated assault committed on him by the suspected human smuggler that was driving the vehicle," Graves said.

Graves said that several firearms were inside the vehicle.

The search is still on-going for the two men that haven't been located.
