A van full of more than a dozen illegals is stopped on I-17.

A sheriff's deputy with Yavapai County saw the van drifting on the road and pulled it over.

The driver said he was taking his friends to prescott to work.

"The van was stopped 8 to 9 miles north of the Cordes Junction turn off to Prescott so if he was going to Prescott he had missed his turn off," said Susan Quayle with the Yavapai County Sheriff's Office.

A check of the van showed that the inside had been modified to carry several passengers.

The undocumented workers are with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
