Officials said they arrested a 54-year-old man who was driving the RV. He was a U.S. citizen with a California driver's license who lives in Tijuana, according to border officials. A canine was used to screen the 1978 Dodge motor home, and the dog alerted agents to conduct a further search. Inside, officers said they found 16 males and four females concealed in cabinets, a closet, a restroom, within a sleeper couch and in the passenger area. One of the passengers was a 12-year-old girl. One man was from Guatamala, and the others were all Mexican citizens, officials said.
