Feds arrest illegal immigrants who are trying to leave USA - On Deadline - USATODAY.com

The government has a new approach to border enforcement. Instead of just focusing on people who are entering the country illegally, the Los Angeles Times says federal agents are also arresting undocumented foreigners who are trying to leave the United States.

The paper reports that U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers have been stopping vehicles and checking the immigration status of travelers near the San Diego-Tijuana border crossing.

"The illegal immigrants they apprehend are typically turned over to the U.S. Border Patrol for processing," according to the paper. "Unless they have serious criminal records or numerous immigration violations, most are returned to Mexico within a few hours."

Officials wouldn't tell the Times how many people have been picked up during these random sweeps.
