Ten illegal migrants were found in a car near the village of Vaksince near Kumanovo, on the border with Serbia.
The group included people from Pakistan, Syria and Bangladesh. The driver fled once he spotted the police.
Vaksince is one of the main centers for illegal transit over the border into Serbia. Illegal migrants are kept in houses there until an opportune moment to get across the border.
