A Texas Department of Public Safety helicopter aircrew operating in the remote West Texas Big Bend Sector captured video of a group of migrants attempting to flee on foot. The group of 32 migrants can be seen wearing camouflage to avoid detection and apprehension.
Fox News journalist Bill Melugin tweeted a Texas DPS video showing a group of 32 migrants fleeing into the West Texas desert region. All of the migrants wore camouflage as is typical for migrants in this sector.

NEW: A group of 32 illegal immigrants dressed in camouflage flees from a @TxDPS helicopter in the remote Big Bend sector, which we just visited last week. People who cross illegally in this desolate area do not want to be caught and are not surrendering themselves. @FoxNews

Parts of the video shows how quickly the migrants wearing camouflage and blend into the local terrain making it difficult for ground-based Border Patrol agents to detect their presence.
Melugin later tweeted a photo showing the 32 migrants in custody by a Border Patrol vehicle while the DPS helicopter aircrew maintains overhead surveillance.
