CBP, Yuma Hospital Busy With Illegal Alien Medical Issues
Almost 30 illegal aliens were provided medical treatment by Yuma Sector…
January 15, 2019 Staff Reporter 8
Almost 30 illegal aliens were provided medical treatment by Yuma Sector Border Patrol agents and Yuma Regional Medical Center staff during the weekend.
Among those who received care in Arizona were Mexican nationals who were shot in Mexico or became ill as a result of drug abuse south of the border.
While countless law-abiding American citizens grapple with access to and the high cost of health care, a 21-year-old Mexican national received medical attention after informing Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) agents that he had sustained a gunshot wound to his right foot two weeks ago while in Mexico.
According to CBP, the man stated that at the time of the shooting he and a friend had been drinking and using narcotics. The two men got into an argument, and his friend subsequently pulled out a fireman shot him in the foot. The illegal alien was transported to the Yuma Regional Medical Center for care.
On January 12, a 53-year-old Mexican national asked CPB agents for medical treatment related to drug use. After the man was transported to the Yuma Regional Medical Center methamphetamine was discovered in his system, according to CPB.
The man had apparently suffered a heart attack sometime during the previous 24 hours due to drug use which took place in Mexico.
On the same day, medical staff at the CBP informed agents that a two-year-old in the company of her mother had a possible fracture to her left arm. CBP reports that upon questioning the mother, agents learned that the toddler fell out of a moving vehicle while in Mexico eight days prior to their illegal entry.
The girl was transported to the Yuma Regional Medical Center for care. It is not known if the mother was charged with child abuse or neglect.
On January 11, an 11-year-old Guatemalan juvenile traveling with his father informed the Yuma CBP Central Processing Center medical staff that he had an open flesh wound on his right ankle that was causing him pain. The boy was transported to the Yuma Regional Medical Center where he was diagnosed with cellulitis and given medication.
According to CBP, on January 13, a 17-year-old unaccompanied alien child from Honduras notified agents and medical staff that he had been sexually assaulted after entering Mexico from Guatemala. The juvenile provided paperwork from the Mexican government that documented an assault which allegedly took place on November 3, 2018. The juvenile was transported to Yuma Regional Medical Center for an evaluation.From the U.S. Census Bureau:The ADI reported on Monday, that a migrant group of more than 400 people crossed into the United States through the Yuma Sector at a point east of San Luis, Arizona.
