The Washington Times
...The incident began at 6:45 p.m. Tuesday when a patrolman with the Hanover County Sheriff's Office stopped a Ford van that was traveling at 62 mph in a 45 mph zone south on Washington Highway, said Sgt. Michael Trice, spokesman for the sheriff's department.
When the patrolman approached the van and asked for identification, he was handed Mexican documents indicating that the man behind the wheel was in the country illegally, Sgt. Trice said. The patrolman also noticed 12 persons in the back of the van, some of whom had what appeared to be gang-related tattoos.
"As he was conducting the investigation, another car pulled up with two people, and that driver gave police fake identification and presented it as if it was real," Sgt. Trice said.
In all, there were 14 adults between the ages of 20 and 49 years old, and a juvenile who worked at "various job sites in our county" and stayed "around the metro Richmond area," Sgt. Trice said.
