Attempt to drive over fence leaves smugglers stuck

Suspected smugglers tried to use ramps to drive an SUV over a 14-foot-tall fence along the U.S.-Mexico border, but they had to abandon the effort when the Jeep got stuck on top of the barrier.

U.S. Border Patrol spokesman Spencer Tippets says patrolling agents spotted the Jeep Cherokee perched atop the fence early Tuesday. It was about five miles west of the Colorado River, which divides Arizona and California.
