Mexican man gets 11 years in prison for drug smuggling
Mexican man gets 11 years in prison for drug smuggling

advertisementA Mexican man who attempted to hit a Border Patrol agent as he fled in a truck has been sentenced to more than 11 years in federal prison, an official said.
Mario Alexander Boconovick-Urbina, 24, was sentenced Wednesday in Tucson for possession of marijuana after 1,120 pounds was found in his vehicle.
The sentence stems from an incident Aug. 26, when Border Patrol agents tried to stop Boconovick-Urbina near Ajo, according to a news release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Arizona.
Boconovick-Urbina refused to comply, and the agents lost sight of him, according to court documents. Other agents in the area were advised to be on the lookout for the pickup truck.
About an hour later, agents found the truck parked in a creek bed on Rasmussen Road in Ajo, court documents state. As the agents approached the truck, Boconovick-Urbina drove toward a senior patrol agent and his K-9, and almost hit the dog.
After a chase, the truck stopped and Boconovick-Urbina got out and ran, documents state. He jumped into the front yard of the home of an off-duty Border Patrol agent and got into a struggle with him.
Boconovick-Urbina was then taken into custody.
A search of the vehicle, which was stolen, revealed 50 bundles of marijuana.
