According to a press release from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the first smuggling attempt happened on November 9 after agents tried to stop a 2019 Ford Expedition on Highway 82 near Sonoita.
CBP says the Ford initially stopped, but sped away. However, during the chase, the Ford slowed down, allowing six people to get out of the vehicle, but the agents quickly arrested them…
