Texas Border Agents Find 40 Illegal Immigrants Entrapped in Metal Box

EDINBURG, Texas (CBP) – Rio Grande Valley Sector Border Patrol (RGV) agents disrupted three human smuggling events and encountered two large groups resulting in 322 apprehensions.

On April 26, Falfurrias Border Patrol Checkpoint agents, after a K-9 alert, referred a truck pulling a flatbed trailer carrying large metal sided boxes to the secondary inspection area. Agents observed a vent, approximately 16 inches by 6 inches on one of the boxes and removed the vent to reveal 40 migrants in a seated position trapped inside. The metal sided box had to be broken apart by unscrewing multiple bolts using a power tool found in the truck. The box had no other opening or means of escape for the occupants.

They are probably already on a government bus to Pennsylvania or wherever.

They should’ve just buried the box and be done with it. Or returned it to sender as it is unopened

Send them to hunter Biden, worst punishment we could dole out...

The horrors he would do to them is unimaginable....and he’d record it on his new laptop so he could re-watch his debauchery over and over.

trapped inside not able to escape - sounds like human trafficking.

Disgusting and inhumane. But if you want to get the border secure to stop this kind of thing from happening, you are, of course, a racist.

They were trapped, not entrapped.
