1Opinion of the Court
DUBINA, Circuit Judge:
Appellant Omar Rodriguez-Lopez (“Rodriguez-Lopez”) appeals his sentence of 18 months imposed following his guilty plea for conspiracy and alien smuggling, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 371 and 8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(2)(A), respectively. Rodriguez-Lopez contends that the district court erred by misapplying USSG § 2L1.1(b)(5), which provides for a two-level enhancement when a smuggling offense “involved intentionally or recklessly creating a substantial risk of death or serious bodily injury to another person.” USSG § 2L1.1(b)(5). For the reasons that follow, we affirm.
