Chinese migrants nabbed at Arizona-Mexico border

U.S. Border Patrol agents says several groups of illegal immigrants from China have been arrested in southern Arizona in recent days.

Border Patrol agent Colleen Agle says it's part of a trend that has seen increasing numbers of Chinese migrants trying to sneak into the U.S. from Mexico. Agle said Monday that human smugglers are taking advantage of an increase in Chinese tourism in South and Central America and enticing Chinese to be smuggled into the U.S.

Two Chinese were found among a large group of migrants who entered the county Friday from Mexico. Three more were found Saturday, a group that included four Chinese was captured Sunday and four more were arrested early Monday.

The numbers are still tiny in relation to the number of Mexican migrants caught.
