SAN DIEGO – Four people were injured in a gunbattle today involving an attempt to smuggle illegal immigrants from Mexico at the busiest border crossing in the U.S., authorities said.

More than 70 people traveling in three vans involved in the incident were in federal custody, said U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokeswoman Angelica DeCima.

Details remained sketchy, but van drivers tried to storm past inspectors at the San Ysidro port of entry and make their way into the U.S. without stopping, DeCima said.

“It was human smuggling, definitely,” said Lauren Mack, a spokeswoman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Three of the injured people were in the vans, and a fourth was in another vehicle, DeCima said. It was unclear how serious the injuries were.

An ICE agent and a border officer fired their guns during the shootout, DeCima said.

The shootout occurred over nine lines of traffic in the 24 northbound lanes, said Monica Munoz, a San Diego police spokeswoman.

About 40,000 vehicles enter the U.S. each day at San Ysidro, which connects San Diego and Tijuana. Investigators closed the port to vehicle traffic from Mexico to the United States for hours.

Four lanes of traffic are now open at the San Ysidro border, officials said at 9 p.m. The wait time to cross the border was about 15 minutes as of 9 p.m., according to the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol. Subscribe to *libertarians*

Like a brown midget circus act

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bike. Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole a bike and asked him to forgive me.

Not sure what size vans they were, but 23/van is near unbelievable.
