The Associated Press


A traffic stop near Hagerstown resulted in the arrests of ten suspected illegal immigrants, Maryland State Police said.

The ten suspects included the driver and all nine passengers in a minivan from California that was stopped Sunday afternoon on Interstate 81 at Maugans Avenue.

Troopers say the driver, Jose Angel Dominguez, produced a fraudulent Mexican driver's license. Police concluded that Dominguez and the others were illegal immigrants and that some have been in the country illegally for 4 years.

Federal immigration agents have taken custody of all ten suspects for deportation proceedings.
