Human Smuggler Deliberately Crashes into Border Patrol SUV in Texas

A human smuggler allegedly drove his SUV directly into a U.S. Border Patrol vehicle while attempting to avoid apprehension.

A Laredo North Station agent observed multiple migrants running from the bank of the Rio Grande “toward a known location for its illicit activity.” Other agents in the area quickly responded and observed a vehicle loading up the migrants.

As the agents approach, the alleged smuggler attempted to flee and “struck the Border Patrol Service unit head-on,” Landrum reported. The collision stopped the smuggler from escaping the area. A photo shows the Border Patrol vehicle’s driver’s side airbag deployed from the impact. Responding agents quickly apprehended seven migrants from undisclosed nations. The agents also arrested the smuggler for transporting the migrants and assaulting the Border Patrol agent with his vehicle.During the recently ended Fiscal Year 22, Border Patrol agents were the recipients of 429 assaults — a record year for assaults on Border Patrol agents,a year-end Use of Force report from U.S. Customs and Border Protection. This represents a near 18 percent increase over the previous year.
