A Border Patrol section chief reported that in recent days, more than 861 criminals have been encountered at the border, including 92 sex offenders and 63 gang members.
"Within the copious amounts of groups being encountered in" the Rio Grande Valley sector in Texas, "a Salvadoran man with a prior conviction for murder was discovered" along with 862 criminal aliens, Chief Patrol Agent Brian Hastings wrote on Twitter Saturday.
Within the copious amounts of groups being encountered in #RGV, a Salvadoran man with a prior conviction for murder was discovered.
FYTD RGV agents have arrested over 861 criminal aliens, to include 63 gang members and 92 sex offenders.
Embedded in the groups were about 93 unaccompanied children, Hastings said, adding that so far in 2021, more than 18,000 such children have been encountered by agents.
President Joe Biden last week said he would not apologize for rolling back a number of border policies of his Republican predecessor, President Donald Trump, and brushed off criticism that illegal immigrants were making the journey because they perceived him to be a "Nice guy."
Vela, citing Border Patrol data, said that 13 percent of unaccompanied minors encountered at the U.S.-Mexico border are under the age of 12, while the majority are aged 13 or older.
