The crew used infrared technology to locate the vehicle in the dark and hazardous terrain.<\/p>\n

CBP said the aircraft’s searchlight was then used to illuminate the arroyo and guide Border Patrol agents and emergency responders to the scene. The aircrew also provided aerial support throughout the rescue.<\/p>\n

Responders were able to safely extract the occupants and transport them for emergency medical care, according to CBP.<\/p>\n

The agency credited coordination between the air and ground crews, along with the use of technology, for helping make the rescue possible.<\/p>\n
