    Fatal Rollover On I-10

    Associated Press - April 7, 2008 1:34 PM ET

    TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - A van packed with suspected illegal immigrants has rolled over while exiting Interstate 10 near Benson, killing one woman and injuring 29 others.

    Two others caught fleeing on foot are in Border Patrol custody.

    The accident occurred early Monday about 10 miles west of Benson.

    Arizona Department of Public Safety spokesman Quentin Mehr says the injured have been taken to Tucson-area hospitals.

    A University Medical Center spokeswoman says at least three males and three females have been brought in by helicopter, with conditions ranging from critical to fair.

    U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents are investigating.

    These idiots simply do not realise how much weight 32 people can be and how it effects the handling of the vehicle. It fact the van is overloaded weight wise carrying over 4,000 lbs. Which is probably more than the van weights.

    Money is more meaningful than life to some - and they come to the United States with dollar signs in their eyes and a straw in their mouths.

    You know, we hear about one of these stories almost every week! I wonder how many vans and other autos that are packed with illegals are getting by, undetected, only to dump their illegal cargo in a city or town near you and I.
