The migrant trafficking incident unfolded in the afternoon of March 31 near the city of Brackettville in Texas, the seat of Kinney County. An SUV was approaching a new pop-up checkpoint set up by U.S. Border Patrol (USBP) agents on Highway 674. However, the vehicle suddenly turned around to avoid the checkpoint – prompting law enforcement to respond.
Authorities pursued the SUV, eventually pulling it over with the help of spike strips after the driver reportedly ran multiple red lights. Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) troopers and deputies from the Kinney County Sheriff's Office (KCSO) surrounded the SUV to prevent it from getting away. Footage showed a KCSO deputy dragging the driver out of the vehicle and onto the grass, where he was frisked and handcuffed.

According to authorities, the driver initially introduced himself as part of the army. But further inspection of his documents and gear disclosed that he was a member of the TNG.

The DPS confirmed the incident in a statement, naming the perpetrator as 26-year-old Savion Johnson. He was charged with evading arrest, smuggling of persons and unlawfully carrying a weapon. According to InfoWars, Johnson is a TNG soldier deployed to the city of Eagle Pass as part of Gov. Greg Abbott's Operation Lone Star.

Brad Coe, Kinney County sheriff, recounted that Johnson turned around when he spotted the USBP checkpoint that had only been operational for a few days. The illegal Johnson had been smuggling fled from the SUV after the incident, but eventually gave himself up to be processed by immigration officials.
Sources said Johnson was promised between $5,000 to $6,000 if he successfully smuggled in his passenger – though it was unclear who offered him the bounty. The Texas guardsman did not have access to license plate readers of or other technology that could have aided him in his efforts. However, authorities said the smuggling charge was elevated as he was armed at the time of arrest.
"We don't know what's going on in their lives to make them do this. But they're going to get caught," said Coe. Two other women were previously caught in Kinney County along the same stretch of road for human smuggling.
Abbott denounced Johnson's actions in a statement to NewsNation, writing: "If the allegations are true, the accused is a traitor and [a] criminal. We have zero tolerance for Texans who violate laws that directly contradict the mission we are seeking to achieve."
"The accused's illegal smuggling may subject him to a mandatory minimum prison sentence of at least 10 years. He deserves more."
