U.S. Border Patrol agents found the bodies of four illegal border crossers over the weekend.

On Friday, at about 9:30 a.m. a Customs and Border Protection helicopter spotted skeletal remains on the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, said Richard DeWitt, Border Patrol Tucson Sector spokesman. They haven't been able to determine identification or gender, he said.
That same day at about 2 p.m., agents located the body of a 24-year-old Mexican woman south of the village of Topawa on the Tohono O'odham Reservation after a man told O'odham police that she had been left behind, DeWitt said. She had an identification card from Naucalpan, Mexico, he said.

Later that night at about 10:30, agents found the body of a man in his 20s south of Cowlic on the Reservation, he said. Agents learned of the body after an agent encountered three people walking on a dirt road who told him that someone from their group had died south of there. Agents found the body following a brief search. He did not have any identification, DeWitt said.

On Sunday at about 12:30 p.m., agents discovered the body of a 42-year-old Mexican man near Kaka, located on the northern end of the Reservation, DeWitt said. Agents were led to the body by directions from an illegal entrant who said he had left two people passed out in the desert. Agents never found the other person.
