A suspected smuggling boat carrying nearly two dozen illegal immigrants that got stuck in kelp off the coast of Southern California was intercepted by the U.S. Coast Guard, and its occupants taken into custody, according to reports.
A Border Patrol spokesman told Fox News that an agent spotted a “panga type vessel” close to rocks off Sunset Cliffs near San Diego early Monday, around three weeks after a smuggling boat hit a reef in the area and broke apart.
