About 60 illegal immigrants found in condo, turned over to Border Patrol

CHULA VISTA - At least 60 illegal immigrants found in a two-story condominium were turned over to the U.S. Border Patrol, an agent said Saturday.
Arrests were made in connection with the raid, said Wendi Lee, a senior Border Patrol agent.
Lee said she did not know how many were arrested, or their names.
Authorities found the illegal immigrants sometime Friday at the complex, on the 200 block of Rancho Court, Lee said.
It was part of a "drop-house" raid, authorities said.
The illegal immigrants were taken to the Border Patrol's processing facility in Chula Vista, Lee said.
Those found Friday who are Mexican nationals with no criminal record may voluntarily return to Mexico, but those with criminal convictions or people from countries other than Mexico will face formal deportation, Lee said.
