Police: Suspected Drop House Found In Phoenix

PHOENIX -- A group of roughly 40 illegal immigrants found in a Valley house on Sunday afternoon will soon be deported back to Mexico, police said.

Police discovered the suspected drop house near 83rd Avenue and Thomas while on a separate emergency call.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents and police led about 40 men, women and children out the front door of the home.

Police describe the conditions inside as barren, with just bottles of water and bags of potato chips.

One neighbor, Kumari Gummadi, said she cannot believe something like that would happen so close to her home.

"I was just completely shocked," Gummadi said. "It was vacant for less than a week, and the next thing we know, this."

Drop houses in the Valley seem to have been popping up more and more recently.

On Thursday, another suspected drop house was discovered after reports of gunshots. More than 50 illegal immigrants were sent running from the home near 91st Avenue and Thomas.

I wonder if authorities are seizing these drop houses? If not they should.
