SAN YSIDRO – A U.S. citizen cleared for a government fast-pass across the border was arrested Tuesday with an undocumented Mexican teenager in her minivan, authorities said.
The 27-year-old San Ysidro resident was entering the United States in a lane for motorists with a Secure Electronic Network for Travelers Rapid Inspection pass.
The driver was registered in the SENTRI program, a U.S. Customs official said.
A Customs and Border Protection officer who was inspecting the woman's van while she waited in line reportedly found a 17-year-old boy under a blanket on the floor behind the front seat.
Officials said the boy had no documents. He was taken into custody as a witness, and the driver was booked into federal jail on suspicion of human smuggling.Support our FIGHT AGAINST illegal immigration & Amnesty by joining our E-mail Alerts at http://eepurl.com/cktGTn
