Video shows National Guard troop run to rescue migrant child drifting on Rio Grande
The footage comes as the migrant crisis at the southern border continues to intensify. Rio Grande Valley Sector Chief Gloria Chavez announced in March that Border Patrol agents had officially reached a million migrant encounters since the fiscal year began in October.
There were 400,000 recorded migrant encounters in FY 2020. In FY 2021, that number shot up to 1.6 million, and then 2.2 million in FY 2022. Border Patrol Chief Raul Ortiz told the House Homeland Security Committee last month that his agency does not have operational control of the border. NEW: Security video from a contact shows what appears to be an abandoned migrant child on a flotation device drifting down the Rio Grande in Eagle Pass, TX – alone. A Texas National Guard soldier can be seen rushing in to try to help, & we are told the child was later rescued.
