We held in United States v. Bowen, 500 F.2d 960 (9th Cir. 1974), that such stops made after June 21, 1973, are unconstitutional when they do not occur at the functional equivalent of the border.

The Temecula checkpoint is 72 miles north of the international boundary and is not the functional equivalent of a border.


5
The evidence discovered pursuant to the stop should have been suppressed.
