AN SUV allegedly carrying 12 illegal immigrants crashed into a Texas home after a 40 minute high-speed chase.
The smuggler allegedly jumped out of the vehicle before he was caught by State Troopers and Border Patrol.
He was charged with felony evading and human smuggling, according to aFOXLA reporter.
The chase ensued for 40 minutes before the driver crashed into the front of a house.
The car, a red SUV, would not be able to hold the dozen immigrants who were inside.
Images from the scene showed several men on the floor with their hands behind their back being cuffed.
The migrant crisis has begun to surge since President Biden took office earlier this year.
Vice President Kamala Harris has been widely slammed for her approach to the border crisis ever since Biden put her in charge of addressing it earlier this year.
The VP has repeatedly insisted that she is working on addressing the "root causes" of why so many migrants are attempting to enter the US illegally.
Immigrant officials said more than 180,000 people were apprehended at the border in May alone. That number was up from around 178,800 in April.
In a statement released earlier this week, former President Donald Trump blamed the Biden administration for the crisis.
"In the history of our country, it has never been more dangerous or worse," Trump said.
"At no time in our country's history has anything so outrageous taken place.
"The Biden Administration stopped construction of the small remaining openings in areas of the almost 500-mile long wall, have taken away all authority from our great Border Patrol.
"And they have ended such long fought for policies including Remain in Mexico, Safe Third Agreements, and our hugely successful program that completely stopped Catch-and-Release," he continued.
Harris has responded to criticism by reiterating her dedication to addressing "root causes" of the migration influx and insisting that she will eventually visit the southern border.
The VP briefly appeared at the Washington, DC, Pride parade on Saturday after giving several, at times heated, interviews about the border situation this week.
