Release Date: August 27, 2020
LAREDO, Texas – U.S. Border Patrol agents halted a narcotics smuggling attempt and apprehended several illegal aliens northwest of Laredo.
The incident occurred during the evening of August 26, when agents responded to several individuals carrying bundles at a ranch near Mines Road. Agents apprehended four individuals and seized five bundles of marijuana.
