One of those incidents included the arrest of an armed human smuggler. The driver, a U.S. citizen, had an active warrant for his arrest, Bovino stated. The agents arrested the migrants and the driver. They also seized a 12-gauge shotgun, a 9mm pistol, two realistic-looking BB guns, and a box of ammunition.
