Suspect caught smuggling seven illegal aliens from Mexico following horror crash near border
Texas authorities apprehended a human smuggler and seven illegal aliens following a high-speed pursuit that continued even after the suspect slammed into a delivery truck, causing it to roll over.
The shocking incident unfolded in Webb County on February 8, but the Texas Department of Public Safety (TxDPS) just released footage and details about the bust.
TxDPS troopers were pursuing an SUV at high speed on FM-1472 near the southern border when the driver suddenly cut across multiple lanes, sideswiping a FedEx truck from the rear, causing it to spin out of control and flip over.

The suspected smuggler then continued onward in the badly-damaged SUV, turning left through a busy intersection and attempting to shake TxDPS.
The suspect eventually bailed out of the vehicle and fled on foot before he was captured and arrested.
He was identified as Alejandro Prado, a resident of Laredo.
Authorities say he was smuggling seven illegal aliens from Mexico, all of whom were turned over to Border Patrol for processing.
Prado was charged with smuggling of persons and evading arrest.
