When Lakeville police stopped a mini-van going 81 miles per hour at 2:30 a.m. on Interstate Hwy. 35 last week, they found that it was packed with 15 illegal immigrants who had been in the van for seven days. The Ford Windstar, which has allotted space for seven people, was en route to Minneapolis. Lakeville police said it had been specially modified with heavy duty springs and suspension parts to accommodate the additional weight. All 15, including the driver, are expected to be deported to Mexico, said Tim Counts, spokesman for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency.
