One such search occurred at the Falfurrias Checkpoint in south Texas early this morning. Border Patrol looked into the back of an 18-wheeler and found a mixed cargo of vegetables and humans. There were 11 people hiding among the pallets of carrots in the back.
Border Patrol found four more hiding in the cab’s sleeping area.
Most were from Mexico, but several were from El Salvador, Honduras and the Dominican Republic.
