BUNKER HILL – Federal charges were announced Wednesday against three of 11 alleged illegal aliens arrested on Aug. 5 in Russell County. Undersheriff Max Barrett said the arrests were made outside the Sunmart truck stop near Bunker Hill after a Chevrolet Suburban broke down and the passengers aroused suspicion. Someone called the sheriff’s office as more and more people emerged from the Suburban and hid in a stand of cedar trees, Barrett said.
