SAN DIEGO – Two men were arrested Friday after authorities found 12 illegal immigrants inside a tractor-trailer truck at a checkpoint in Jamul.
Agents spotted the truck, which was following a Chevy Malibu, after being told several people were seen boarding it in Tecate, said Mark Endicott, a Border Patrol spokesman.



Agents searched the truck and discovered ten men, one woman and a 17-year-old girl inside, Endicott said.
The drivers of the truck was arrested, along with the Malibu's driver, who agents say was acting as a look out. Both are U.S. citizens and the vehicles were seized, Endicott said.

All of the people in the tractor-trailer were Mexican nationals and will be processed for deportation.

Despite the recent high temperatures, none of them suffered any heat-related injuries, Endicott said

Its too bad we cant deport the U.S. citizens who are involved in smuggling illegal aliens.

Another tractor-trailer truck!!!

This is becoming almost daily news.

Wait won't the illegals be sent to jail for a month then deported? What about Operation Streamline?

Is this part of the trucks that Bush want coming out of Mexico

Thank You Mary Peters (DOT) and our congress who refused to stop her from going ahead with the pilot program.
