More arrests have been made at the Coutts border crossing.

RCMP say Monday they made an arrest on the highway where two weapons were seized and an individual was arrested and remains in custody. 

He was stopped by police while en-route back to the protest site.

At about 12:45 p.m., a northbound semi truck approached an RCMP check stop north of Milk River and the driver accelerated and drove towards police. 

The driver swerved at the last moment and hit some traffic cones on the roadway. 

The driver was arrested close to the scene and faces criminal code offences.

Police say this brings to 13 the number of people arrested within 24 hours in connection with the Coutts border protests.
