Fifteen Cuban migrants were arrested Sunday after a "maritime smuggling event" transpired on Virginia Key, a spokesperson for U.S. Customs and Border Protection said.

The 15 migrants will be transported to the Dania Beach Border Patrol station for "further processing and removal," the spokesperson said.

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission initially said 20 migrants were discovered on the boat. The Coast Guard later said there were a total of 27 people on the vessel, but were unable to confirm how many were migrants from the island nation.

Two people were initially detained near North Point Park, the FWC said. U.S. Customs and Border Protection and Miami Fire Rescue responded to the scene.

Yep, process them and send them back! If they come back a second time, prosecute and punish them for felony reentry.

Remove EVERY last one of them...NO excuses to stay.

We are not the dumping ground or ATM machine for the world.

Now REMOVE every last illegal alien that is pouring over our border...THEY do not get to stay either! None of them!
