Two Central American men faced a judge after being arrested for running an immigrant stash house in San Benito.
Border Patrol agents arrested Ariel Alberto Gomez-Tellez and Jose Carlos Garmendia-Mejia under harboring illegal immigrant charges on Monday.
Court records show that Border Patrol agents had been staking out a house at 635 Bonham when the car of a known immigrant smuggler pulled up.
Gomez-Tellez allegedly tried to run out the back door but was caught.
Border Patrol agents found six illegal immigrants inside the San Benito home.
The immigrants identified Gomez-Tellez and Garmendia-Mejia as stash house operators.
Both men appeared before U.S. Magistrate Court Judge Felix Recio on Wednesday morning.
Judge Recio denied bond for the two men pending a court hearing on Monday.
Court records show that Gomez-Tellez is from Nicaragua while Garmendia-Mejia is from Honduras.
