EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) -- U.S. Border Patrol agents from the El Paso Sector acting on a tip recently rescued 35 migrants from a box trailer in New Mexico, the chief patrol agent said.
Chief Patrol Agent Anthony "Scott" Good tweeted pictures of a Chevy pickup that was hauling the trailer, and dozens of individuals inside the trailer.
Good noted that the conditions inside the trailer can be dangerous, especially with the temperature increasing.
"Ruthless smugglers continue to place the lives of people in danger," Good tweeted. "Incredible job by our agents in identifying & intercepting the smuggling scheme."
