Charged with federal felony counts of being an illegal immigrant were Manueal Altamirano, 23; Humberto Reyes, 25; Freddy V. Santos, 37; and Eulalio M. Barragan, 54.

All four were turned over to the U.S. Border Patrol pending deportation proceedings.

Charged with federal felony counts of being an illegal immigrant

Whoa! Federal Felony there's something being left out of this story!

I usually go thru a license check right about here when using the Northway ( I-87)...LOL! I'd bet my last buck these guys ducked OFF of the Northway to avoid the check point and an alert trooper got 'em anyway! There is almost always a check point going south right outside of a rest area by Schroon Lake, they usually don't even ask for a license they just give you a once over as you pass them slowly. I've only been asked to pull into the rest area for further inspection once!
