Immigration agents seeing increasing assaults in western Arizona
SAN LUIS, Ariz. Immigrant smugglers are becoming more violent in their attempts to sneak their customers past this fortified stretch of border with Mexico.
Some Border Patrol trucks have metal grates to protect against rock-throwing smugglers, who are either frustrated with tighter security or hope to make agents back off.
The Border Patrol's Yuma sector, which includes San Luis, is on pace to exceed the 123 assaults on agents reported last fiscal year.
The business of immigrant smuggling has become more dangerous as the high profits of human trafficking prompt violent drug smugglers to get into the immigrant business.
