Sheppard AFB, Texas -- An illegal immigration crackdown, at the gates of Sheppard Air Force Base.
Authorities say eight men were trying to get onto the base, even though they didn't have the proper identification. That's what caught the attention of a base security guard, and ultimately landed six of those men in jail. Two others were banned from the base.
Authorities say the men told gate security they were coming to work for a civilian contractor already at Sheppard. But base authorities didn't know they were coming. If they did, the men would have had an official work order, which would have given them access to the base.
