“NEW: Texas State Troopers pulled over a semi-truck near Laredo today that was crammed full of 105 migrants who were being smuggled into the United States,” Melugin reported. “The driver, Michael Warren McCoy, was arrested for human smuggling and was booked into Webb County jail.”
Melugin highlighted the “massive group” of hundreds of migrants arriving at the southern border, coming mostly from Haiti.
“NEW: I’m back at the border in Del Rio, TX, where a massive group of 300-400 migrants have arrived at a gate at the border wall and is hoping to be let into the U.S. Many are from Haiti. Troopers from Nebraska, Florida, & Texas here with National Guard & Border Patrol,” he reported for Fox News. “It’s unclear what’s going to happen with this group. Troopers tell me Border Patrol is completely overrun and their processing centers are all over capacity & they can’t handle a group this size. Concerns the group may have to wait in the blistering heat. More coming.”
