Officials say the 475 percent increase in pursuits in October led to crashes causing serious injuries and hospitalizations.<\/p>\n<p>Between October 1 and 27, San Diego Sector agents engaged in 23 failure-to-yield incidents involving human smugglers. During the same period one year ago, the agents only engaged in four such incidents \u2014 an increase of 475 percent, officials stated.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>In many of these failure-to-yield incidents, USBP agents witnessed \u201cexcessive speeds, reckless driving, vehicle crashes, and property damage accounting for numerous injuries and hospitalizations,\u201d sector officials said in a written statement.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Chief Patrol Agent Aaron Heitke added, \u201cThis reckless behavior poses a serious risk to our neighborhoods, the motoring public, and our agents.&nbsp;We will not tolerate these tactics and will continue to seek criminal prosecution for anyone involved in them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Officials cited an incident that took place on October 19 at about 7 a.m. Agents working near Chula Vista, California, received information about a suspected human smuggling incident. Agents responded and attempted to stop the vehicle by using their emergency lights and siren.<\/p>\n<p>The driver failed to yield and led agents in a pursuit that entered local neighborhoods. At some point, the driver stopped and all of the occupants jumped out and fled on foot.<\/p>\n<p>The driver absconded, but a follow-up investigation led to his arrest. The agents also located several of the migrants after they fled on foot. All were determined to be in the U.S. illegally, officials stated.<\/p>\n<p>Other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/tag\/police-pursuit\/\">articles<\/a> by Breitbart Texas detail the dangerous tactic of smugglers fleeing from Border Patrol agents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>San Diego Sector Border Patrol officials announced an alarming trend of \u201cdangerous failure-to-yield\u201d incidents involving human smugglers.
