MIAMI - A gaudily painted boat and a Coast Guard airplane spotting people hiding in bushes played key roles in catching 20 Cubans trying to sneak into the United States on Thursday and Friday.
The Coast Guard also said it arrested a smuggling suspect on Thursday.
Cuban border security told Coast Guard watchstanders about a boat with passengers illegally leaving Cuba. A U.S. Customs and Border Patrol plane spotted what the Coast Guard described as a "30-foot center console" and stopped the boat High Trollers about 41 miles south of Key West.
Of the five Cuban women, five Cuban men, one child and the boat's driver, all but one man and the driver will be taken back to Cuba. Those two were taken into custody.
