Source: The Monitor, McAllen, TexasSept.迷你倉 12--SAN JUAN -- San Juan police investigators assisted U.S. Border Patrol agents as they raided two houses Wednesday that sheltered about 175 immigrants suspected of entering the country illegally.The first raid, about 11 a.m., netted about 44 people from a house near the intersection of Cesar Chavez Road and Farm-to-Market Road 494. In addition to Mexican and Central American citizens, investigators found an unspecified number of Chinese nationals there.Investigators had been watching the second house before raiding it Wednesday about 4:30 p.m., San Juan police Chief Juan Gonzalez said."That's why we did surveillance there," the chief said. "Too much traffic."Investigators were tipped off by heavy traffic to and from the back of the house, which Gonzalez said is often a sign of drug or human smuggling.Border Patrol agents escorted several groups -- 10 to 20 people at a time -- from an unrem文件倉rkable, gray brick house with a tall wooden back fence in the 400 block of West 13th Street in San Juan past a canal bank and into a Department of Homeland Security bus parked on San Antonio Avenue.At least one neighbor said he was surprised as he watched the lengthy stream of people from the house to the bus."This is my first time ever seeing something this big," said Dwayne Quailes, who has lived across the canal for six years. "I'm thinking that was a nice neighborhood for them to just be stashed up in there. It's a shock, you know? Wow."Investigators also recovered a semiautomatic handgun from the house, Gonzalez said.Immigrants in the home hailed from Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador and Ecuador, Border Patrol spokesman Enrique Mendiola said.jfischler@themonitor.comCopyright: ___ (c)2013 The Monitor (McAllen, Texas) Visit The Monitor (McAllen, Texas) at .themonitor.com Distributed by MCT Information Services存倉
