During the first incident at about 5 p.m., agents stopped a white Chevrolet Tahoe in Gadsden and arrested a U.S. citizen and a Mexican citizen with permanent resident status. The two had allegedly been attempting to smuggle three illegal immigrants hidden in the vehicle's cargo area, including one juvenile, into the country.
The agents confiscated a .40-caliber Glock pistol and one magazine containing 15 rounds they reportedly found in the center console and took the illegal immigrants into custody.
The vehicle and illegal immigrants will be processed per Yuma Sector guidelines. The juvenile will be returned to Mexico pending clearance by the Mexican Consulate.
