During an interview, the two alleged smugglers reportedly admitted to “picking up the illegal immigrants to smuggle them,” DPS officials stated. A search of the vehicle led to the discovery of a loaded Glock pistol.

Troopers arrested the driver and a passenger on charges of human smuggling under 18 years of age and unlawful carrying of a weapon, Olivarez stated.

Del Rio Sector Border Patrol agents took custody of the migrants, including the infant.
