In less than a week, U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agents have arrested five Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13) gang members in five separate incidents across South Texas.

The first arrest occurred on Saturday when agents arrested seven people trying to cross into the U.S. west of the Brownsville International Bridge.

One of those detained was a 20-year-old man from El Salvador who had tattoos similar to those used by MS-13 gang members. The man had previously been deported and had a criminal record in Los Angeles.

On Sunday, Kingsville Border Patrol agents arrested 17 illegal immigrants near Rivera. Among those arrested was an MS-13 gang member from El Salvador with an extensive criminal record for weapons violations, attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon.

On the same day agents in Harlingen arrested a group in Combes which included an MS013 gang member.

The fourth arrest happened Monday near Rio Grande City and the final arrest of an MS-13 member happened north of Corpus Christi.

Brian, thanks for the great posts. You are one high octane activist.

MS 13 needs to be put out of business - permanently.

Thanks Scarecrow! I try to help keep a fresh supply of news articles on the forum so there is always something new.
