Uvalde Station Border Patrol agents took custody of the 46 migrants.

Another example of the dangerous tactics of the human smugglers occurred a few days earlier when a pursuit by Texas DPS ended in a rollover crash landing upside down in the Rio Grande.

Two weeks ago, a truck trying to evade Texas DPS crashed, injuring nine people. The driver absconded, but was later captured in Mexico and extradited back to the United States to answer for his crimes. Make no mistake. Our partnership with Mexico is important, and it is strong.

Smugglers have ZERO concern for human life.This week, a vehicle chase initiated by our law enforcement partners ended when the driver lost control of the vehicle and struck another motorist. Among the lives endangered by these 2 smugglers: 1 innocent motorist & 5 subjects.

Already this week, agents of the Del Rio Sector have rescued over 120 subjects.
Whether on the water, in the desert, or locked in a conveyance, these smugglers show no regard for human life. BUT, WE DO.
