The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) on Wednesday encountered more than 100 illegal immigrants who entered the U.S. illegally and trespassed on private property.

Texas DPS Lt. Chris Olivarez told Fox News Digital the migrants crossed the Rio Grande and stepped onto private property after ignoring troopers' warnings not to enter.
