Comments (5)SIX illegal immigrants were arrested this afternoon after cutting their way out of a truck.
They jumped out of the HGV's trailer, parked on the Stephenson Industrial Estate, Usworth, Washington, shortly after 3.20pm.
After a short search by officers the three women and three men, aged between 20 and 32-years old, were caught nearby.
The six, from Eritrea in Africa, had cut their way through the curtain sides of the trailer.
Police said last night that it is not yet known where they boarded the trailer or whether the driver knew of their presence.
