Border patrol agents stopped another human smuggling attempt on Thursday.

Agents attempted to stop a pickup truck that tried to avoid the I-35 checkpoint by driving on the access road.

Agents followed the truck and witnessed several subjects hidden beneath some wooden panels in the bed of the truck.

When the driver finally did pull over, the subjects jumped out of the vehicle and ran into surrounding bushes.

Agents searched the brush and apprehended 18 subjects who were all determined to be undocumented immigrants.
