SANTA ANA, Calif. Four men have been arrested for investigation of alien smuggling in Santa Ana.

Police received a call Wednesday from a man who said a smuggler threatened to harm one of his three Mexican relatives if he failed to pay 54-hundred dollars. The man told police he had already paid five-thousand dollars to bring his relatives to the United States.

Authorities say undercover officers agreed to meet the alleged smugglers and handed over the cash in exchange for the relatives. The suspects fled in separate cars before they were stopped by SWAT teams.

Each has been charged with suspicion of kidnapping for ransom and extortion.

No mention of what happened to the three relatives. Also no mention of what happened to the man who conspired to smuggle the illegals in. Isn't this against the law?
