Three people were caught hiding on a cargo ship coming from Cuba to South Florida.

Port Everglades spokesperson Ellen Kennedy said three Cuban nationals were found by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials hiding in an auto carrier aboard a cargo ship Friday. The cargo ship was carrying movie equipment for the movie "Fast and Furious 8" from Cuba to Port Everglades.

Customs public information officer Migdalia Artega confirmed that three Cuban nationals were confirmed but did not identify them due to privacy laws.
