An Immigration and Naturalization Service bus transporting illegal aliens to Mexico skidded off a rain-dampened highway near the border early Sunday, slightly injuring six Mexicans and two U.S. agents, authorities said. The bus, with 63 people on board, was en route from San Clemente to the San Ysidro border crossing on Interstate 805 when the driver lost control at about 6 a.m., Border Patrol Supervisory Agent Michael Gregg said. The bus went onto a shoulder of the highway but remained upright. The injured were taken to Chula Vista Community Hospital with minor injuries.
