Why Border Patrol Is Rescuing Migrant Families on the Rio Grande

are crossing the Rio Grande to enter the U.S.

who are making this risky decision

and surrendering to Border Patrol.

Haitian migrants and refugees cross the Rio Grande – in pictures

In the past few weeks more than 12,000 Haitians

have arrived in Del Rio, Texas,

gathering in a huge makeshift camp.

Many have to cross the Rio Grande from Del Rio to Ciudad Acuña

to seek food and supplies in Mexico

to bring back to family members waiting in the US.

Others are crossing back into Mexico to avoid deportation flights
