Arizona authorities said 32 migrants were rescued in Tucson on Monday night following the pursuit of a box truck.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection said the chase started on Interstate 10 shortly after 6 p.m. local time.
Agents had attempted a vehicle stop on the truck near the I-10 Frontage Road and Grant Road intersection, but the truck sped west out of the city.
The truck came to a stop on a rural road southwest of the city.
