Border Patrol Uncovers Big Rig Smuggling Scheme in Golden Acorn Casino Parking
Campo, California - Two men are being held in federal custody for allegedly smuggling 25 Mexican nationals through the use of two semi trucks last night in Campo.
At about 10:30 p.m., Border Patrol agents were led to a parking lot at the Golden Acorn Casino as they pursued a group of illegal aliens on foot. The group boarded a cargo trailer through a trap door on the undercarriage. Agents apprehended a total of 17 illegal aliens found hiding inside the trailer.
As agents conducted surveillance of the parking lot, they observed a group of eight additional illegal aliens enter the cab of a second semi truck, which did not have an attached cargo trailer.
At about 11:45 p.m., agents stopped both semi trucks as they were being driven out of the parking lot. Agents arrested the eight illegal aliens and the two male U.S. citizens driving the semi trucks. The two drivers are currently awaiting charges for alien smuggling.
Through border awareness and intelligence-driven operations, the effectiveness of the Border Patrol is progressively increasing. Since October 1, 2008, the men and women of San Diego Sector have made more than 46,000 apprehensions of people illegally in the country.

REPORT FROM CAMPO MINUTEMEN
Campo Minutemen report an increased level not only illegal border crossings but in the level of violence. With the increased fencing and the filling of Smuggler's Gulch, the illegal border crossers seem to have moved east. Independent Minuteman Granny Goose, who has worked in the area for three years, and received an award from the Border Patrol in the area, has traveled east to work with the Campo Minutemen and the Campo Minutemen have been able to provide him some upgraded night vision equipment.
G-man is currently working on his quarterly replacement of batteries for his lights and sensor equipment. Easily the most successful Minuteman in terms of numbers of illegal crossers apprehended, he replaces 188 double "A" batteries four times a year.
Gadget Dan continues his border monitoring and removal of trash left by illegal border crossers. In the last three years, he has removed 12 tons of trash.
The violence at the border, which those who live there have noticed to be increasing for some time, is exploding. The United States Government has issued traveling warnings and tourists are staying away. Los Zetasn whose presence at the border, was reported by Campo Minuteman Jim Chase four years, ago, to much derision, has been confirmed by CNN.
Kingfish witnessed an incident of a Border Patrol Car being rocked in Smith Canyon. He observed the situation in case the agent needed assistance, but two more Border Patrol cars soon came to provide back up and the rock thrower fled. Gadegt Dan reports a large truck was pulled over, and dozens of illegals were found to be inside. On another occasion, gunshots were fired from south of the border fence. Border Patrol agents later located marijuana and one suspect was arrested.
