This weekend agents in Big Bend Sector intercepted multiple smuggling schemes. A big thanks to both Air Marine Operations (AMO) and the Texas Department of Public Safety air support (DPS) for consistently helping our agents on the ground. #Partnership#Teamwork

Last night, Alpine agents intercepted a group of over 10 undocumented non-citizens, two being unaccompanied minors. Groups often move in the dark of the night, which makes it dangerous for everyone. Safety remains one of our top priorities. #SafetyFirst
