TUCSON, Ariz.
Border Patrol officials say agents at an immigration checkpoint in southern Arizona found a Mexican woman hiding in the trunk of a car.
A Border Patrol canine alerted Tucson Sector agents from the Sonoita Border Patrol Station to something suspicious in the trunk Monday.
While talking to the 48-year-old woman driving the car, agents opened the trunk and discovered the 40-year-old Mexican woman.
Both women were arrested.
Authorities say the driver is a U.S. citizen and is facing human-smuggling charges while the woman in the trunk is being charged for immigration violations.
The names of the two women haven't been released.
