McALLEN, Texas — Three people face federal charges in connection with a scheme to bring illegal immigrants into a South Texas beach resort aboard Jet Skis.
Americans Anthony and Andy Rodriguez and Mexican citizen Beatriz Manzano-Luna were arrested Friday. The U.S. Coast Guard had alerted Border Patrol that personal watercraft were ferrying people from Boca Chica Beach just south of the mouth of the Rio Grande in Mexico to jetties at Isla Blanca Park on South Padre Island.
KGBT-TV reports that Border Patrol spokesman John Lopez said seven illegal immigrants were intercepted by local police.
Attorneys for the three defendants did not immediately return calls from The Associated Press.
