39 Migrants Found Warehoused Near Border in Texas

Breitbart News reported that 39 migrants were rescued from a stash house near the Rio Grande.

A tip from a citizen in Rio Bravo, Texas, led to this raid.

Bob Price of Breitbart News highlighted that “None of the people packed into the small house had personal protection equipment to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.”

Border agents from the Laredo South Station and deputies from the Webb County, Texas, Sheriff’s Office got together on September 30 upon receiving information from a concerned citizen about a house possibly being used for human smuggling. Law enforcement immediately raided the residence and discovered 39 people being held in tight quarters with no PPE.

According to information provided by the Laredo Sector Border Patrol officials, agents did medical screenings and criminal background checks and were able to find out that the 39 illegal aliens from Mexico and Guatemala illegally entered the country through the border.

The officials revealed that two of the illegal aliens had active warrants Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol. Sheriff’s deputies brought the two individuals into custody and had them stay in the Webb County jail until they would be extradited. The rest of the illegal aliens were processed in accordance to the Title 42 Coronavirus protection protocols set forth by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
