OKLAHOMA CITY -- Oklahoma Highway Patrol Troopers said United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents have 12 illegal immigrants in custody, after a traffic stop along Interstate 40 and Rockwell Avenue.

A trooper said he tried to pull over a truck traveling on Interstate 40 Wednesday morning. He said the driver wouldn't pull over, and instead went through a fence and stopped in a nearby field.

The trooper said six people ran from the front portion of the truck. When the trooper searched the truck, he said he found 12 illegal immigrants packed in the back.

Oklahoma City police helped search the area for the six men who ran, but were not able to locate them.

Troopers said the truck appeared to be out of Arizona.
