TECATE, Calif. -- Border Patrol agents discover nearly two-dozen illegal immigrants hidden in a semi flatbed. It happened Monday around 9:15 p.m. in Tecate. Agents said they were searching for a group of suspected border crossers in the area. They followed footprints, which led them to a parked semi with an attached flatbed trailer. Agents said they discovered a large steel compartment welded onto the trailer's undercarriage. Inside, officials said they found 23 people stashed inside. All of them were arrested. The driver was not at the scene at the time.

In Reply to aps1937: Hell no, they are cowards and they ALWAYS take the easy way out, always. They wouldn't make a stand if their miserable lives depended on it. So not only do they not deserve to be here, they don't even deserve to be in their own countries.
