*How* many people were in that van?

Saturday morning I was taking my dad to the airport (a little before 6), and as we're driving on I-10, we see this white 15-passenger van with Mexico plates being followed by a police car with its lights on. After being followed for several miles, the van exits at Broadway and slams on the brakes, throwing plenty of tire smoke into the air. It comes to a stop, and I see 6 or 7 Mexicans jump out of the van and just start running down the off-ramp. I couldn't see if there were any more, as we had already passed them at that point, but it was still pretty funny. On my way back home the van was still there, but with maybe 6 police cars around it.
