The Haysville Times
On Thursday morning, the Sedgwick County Sheriff’s Office got a tip about a full-size white van, possibly carrying illegal immigrants. The van was stopped at the Haysville Mini Stop at the corner of 71st and Broadway.
They believe the van came up from Oklahoma.
When an officer approached the van, the people inside fled on foot. There were seventeen individuals caught, and they are now in custody. U.S. Immigration Services was called.
