Police began investigating the pair whenGilberto Juan Zarate was involved in a roll-over accident in Skull Valley.

Police discovered that Zarate, 18, was in the U.S. illegally and had fake resident alien and Social Security cards.

They said Sarah Marie Sanchez, 20, paid a coyote $1,000 to smuggle Sanchez into the U.S. She told authorities it was the second time she paid to have Zarate brought across the border.
