Border Patrol agents from the Tucson Station say they have arrested a U.S. citizen and four Honduran nationals after a failed human smuggling attempt that led agents on a pursuit.
The Border Patrol said Friday that agents on Thursday had tried to stop a sedan for an immigration inspection near the southern town of Sasabe, but the driver of the vehicle sped away toward the community of Arivaca.
The agency used a helicopter to help with the pursuit.
Border officials arrested the driver, two passengers in the car and two other in the trunk after the vehicle stopped in Arivaca.
