Three people who crossed into the United States illegally died Monday on a mountain near the La Posta Indian Reservation and two others were taken into custody.

U.S. Border and Customs Protection agents responded to a rural area near the reservation, located along Interstate 8, about 60 miles east of San Diego, about 2:15 p.m.

A group of five people were walking in the area when three of them became sick and a 9-1-1 call was made to come rescue them, Border Patrol spokesman Theron Francisco said. It was not immediately clear what type of injuries the victims sustained.

Agents and a Border Patrol helicopter was sent to the scene. Medical personnel gave the three victims medical attention, but were unable to save them and all three died by 7:30 p.m., Francisco said.








The bodies of the victims could not be removed from the mountain due to severe weather. A recovery effort will take place Tuesday, depending on the weather, Francisco said.

The ages, genders and names of the victims were not disclosed.

Three people died and two were taken into custody Monday after the group got lost while crossing into the United States border near Mount Laguna in San Diego County, California, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Border Patrol dispatch was notified at around 2:15 p.m. local time Monday that five people needed medical help near La Posta Indian Reservation, a "very rural and extremely rugged" area by the Laguna Mountains, San Diego Sector Border Patrol said in a statement.

The rescue attempt came amid treacherous weather conditions. Early the same day, the National Weather Service office in San Diego tweeted that there was "heavy snow with poor visibility" on Mount Laguna.

Mt Laguna at 5 AM. Heavy snow with poor visibility.

Be prepared for chain restrictions. There are several already in effect in the San Bernardino Mtns, and should expand into SD County mountains through the day. #cawx

Two of the five were able to walk out of the area on their own and told Border Patrol that three others needed to be rescued, San Diego Sector Border Patrol said. Within a few hours, the remaining three individuals were reached by helicopter; two were in grave condition and unresponsive, while the other was in serious condition.

Border Patrol agents provided immediate medical attention to the three on the scene. But just after 10 p.m., Chief Patrol Agent Aaron Heitke tweeted that all three had died.

"Due to severe weather, recovery of the bodies must wait until tomorrow," he wrote.

Between 4 and 5 inches of snow fell on Mount Laguna on Monday, the weather service reported.

The group had called 911 when they started suffering from hypothermia, Heitke said on Twitter.
