The 28-year-old woman, who was driving a Chevy sedan, ran into an immigration checkpoint near Amado, Arizona on Thursday afternoon while carrying two illegal immigrants in the back of her trunk.
A Phoenix, Arizona woman was arrested this week after she allegedly led Border Patrol agents on a car chase while concealing two illegal immigrants in the trunk of her vehicle.
Authorities arrested the driver when she stopped the car at the Agua Linda Road exit and subsequently discovered two undocumented Mexican immigrants hidden in the trunk of her vehicle. The woman, whose identity has not been publicly released, has been charged with human smuggling and remains in custody.
“As temperatures continue to rise, Border Patrol officials warn that Arizona’s high temperatures can kill humans riding in the trunk of a car,” the agency said in a statement. “Other dangers include carbon monoxide poisoning and the risk of serious injury or death from a vehicle collision.”
