Swanton Sector Border Patrol agents joined local law enforcement and first responders to rescue a group of Indian nationals crossing the Saint Regis River from Canada into New York.
Concerned citizens notified the Akwesasne Mohawk Police Service about suspicious activity on a boat appearing to be illegally crossing the Saint Regis River from Canada into New York. The police officials notified the Saint Regis Mohawk Tribal Police Department about the boat traveling from Cornwall, Ontario, toward the U.S.
HAVFD rescue teams deployed a rescue boat that recovered the other six occupants. None of the migrants had life jackets or any other safety equipment. The six Indian migrants ranged in age from 19-21, officials reported. They all face charges of Illegal Entry by an Alien, the report states. The alleged smuggler now faces charges of Alien Smuggling. If convicted, the U.S. citizen could face up to ten years in federal prison for each of the six Indian migrants.
