Watch: Illegal Alien Smugglers' Boat Rammed By CBP Off California Coast

Dramatic footage shows US Customs and Border Protection Air and Marine Operations halting an attempt by human traffickers to smuggle a boat full of illegals into the country off the coast of California. The Mexican Navy alerted the CBP that the vessel had refused to stop for them and the US Coast Guard in a previous encounter. Border Patrol Chief Michael Banks stated that the CBP attempted to stop the boat near the San Diego coastline, but the driver refused to heave, forcing the escalated action. The agents rammed the boat and disabled it, allowing them to detain two alleged human smugglers. Last week, Banks revealed that another vessel was intercepted carrying 19 illegal aliens, three of whom are thought to be smugglers. Such incursions are increasing in frequency now the land borders have been completely locked down. The Trump administration has seen a 99.99% decrease in so-called getaways, with illegal border encounters down 95%. The administration has deported roughly 139,000 people, compared to up to 15,000 crossings per day under the Biden administration. The dramatic footage highlights the efforts of border patrol agents to defend the border and prevent human trafficking.
