U.S. border patrol agents apprehended two Canadians and a Nigerian as part of a wider human smuggling investigation that also ensnared a Saskatchewan woman, officials said Thursday. Their identities have not been released and it is not known if they are still in custody or if they are facing charges. RelatedThe nine individuals had bypassed formal channels, entering the country instead somewhere between the North Portal and Northgate ports of entry. The following day, police searched a home in Regina and found a significant amount of cash — some in foreign currency, officials said. It is not known how many people may be connected to the suspected smuggling operation.
