Train stowaways detected at border by high-tech device

Hey--this is pretty cool.

An AP newswire article on USA Today reports:

BUFFALO (AP) — Border agents using gamma-imaging technology on an incoming freight train apprehended two Brazilian nationals trying to enter the United States illegally, authorities said Monday.

Nilson Giusti, 41, and Agiles Bezerra, 23, were found in two separate cars on the Black Rock Rail Bridge Saturday, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Both had entered Canada as temporary visitors earlier this month.
