Border Patrol agents catch African illegals
MCCOOK – Authorities catch several immigrants believed to be from Africa. A chopper is helping agents find the rest.
Ethiopians headed into the Valley Friday morning were intercepted by Border Patrol agents. Four of them were in custody, and agents said 11 more were caught around noon.
It was unclear if they were all from Africa, but they were transported to McAllen’s Border Patrol station to determine their nationalities.
It all started when a sheriff’s deputy tried to pull over a black truck. The driver took off and led police on a brief chase before stopping near a field. Several people jumped out of the truck and ran.
A convenience store owner in the area said he frequently see illegals walk into his store.
Agents started the proceedings to deport the Ethiopians.
