HOUSTON (KTRK) -- For the second time in as many days, police have busted an alleged illegal immigration ring.

Officers were called out to a home on Fairmeadow near West Airport in southwest Houston overnight. The FBI and Houston police were tipped off that there were 38 illegal immgrants there, along with two smugglers. The tip also said that members of the MS-13 gang were headed to the house to raid it.

Officers went to the house, and rounded up everyone inside. They also waited to see if any MS-13 members showed up, but none did.

All of the immigrants were loaded onto a bus, but it's unclear at this point where they were taken.

This is the second time officials have raided a suspected illegal immigrant operation. Yesterday's immigration raid happened in southeast Houston. A man investigators say was being held against his will escaped from a house on Corl and Midvale and ran to a nearby store for help. Officers found 9 people inside, including 3 children. Three suspected human smugglers were also arrested.
