 SAN DIEGO -- Two men were behind bars Friday night for a strange immigrant smuggling case, 10News reported. Police say a 15-year-old Mexican girl hired two men to bring her into the U.S. Thursday night. Once across the border, the girl called her mother, who didn't know about her daughter's plan, and told her to come pick her up and bring $2,200, dollars, 10News reported. When the girl's mother showed up with only $300, dollars, the men refused to let the girl go and told the mother she had an hour to get the money, 10News reported. Instead, the mother called police and the men were arrested. The girl is being allowed to stay in the U.S. for now because she is a material witness in a crime. |
