Homeland Security

F.M. 1017 may be used to bypass Border Patrol checkpoint

EDINBURG - NEWSCHANNEL 5 has learned smugglers may be using a bypass to get around a Border Patrol checkpoint in the Valley.

FM 1017, thirty miles north of Edinburg, is often used by truck drivers and farmers wanting to avoid traffic.

But a NEWSCHANNEL 5 investigation has found it may be popular with illegal immigrants and criminals as well.

A NEWSCHANNEL 5 crew drove FM 1017 Northwest towards Hebronville, turned on to Highway 285 into Falfurrias, totally bypassing the Checkpoint.

There once was a checkpoint on FM 1017, but it has been shut down.

Spokesperson for Border Patrol Laredo Sector says "The checkpoint is being replaced, and we're going to be moving it to another location. Right now we have an agent patrolling the area."

We're told they're working on a solution to patch the "hole" in Homeland Security.

So far, no exact date for the new checkpoint has been announced.

NO THIS CANNOT BE! A HOLE IN OUR HOMELAND SECURITY? WHAT WILL THE HUMAN SKULL DO NOW?

Well there you have it folks. Once this "microscopic" hole gets fixed, no more illegals!

Funny, there's a hole approx 2,000 miles wide that needs to be "patched".

A hole, let me see the border is a hole. Immigration enforcement is even being attempted in this country. Judges let illegals go, bush's administration is not deporting them, and congress is not funding the fence. We were promised border security in 1986 and got nothing. What makes them think that we believe them now.
