NEW: Lots of runners out in the brush here in Penitas tonight. There are illegal immigrants laying down and hiding all in this field we are in near a Texas neighborhood. We are embedded with a @TxDPS Trooper who is helping Border Patrol find them. Mostly single men. @FoxNews
More illegal immigrants being caught. They are all over the place in this field. @FoxNews
Another group of 6 just caught.
Another one. This time, a woman. Most of the single adults will be removed from the country via Title 42 if they are caught.
The reason Border Patrol is able to find these migrants in the dark of night like this is because of a surveillance balloon they use called an aerostat. You can see their lights blinking as they watch from above. @FoxNews

BREAKING: Our drone is back over the international bridge in Del Rio, TX. Per source, the number of migrants waiting to be processed has now swelled to approx 8,200. It was 4,000 yesterday AM. Doubled in one day. BP overwhelmed, & I’m told situation is “out of control” @FoxNews
Law enforcement source on the ground at the bridge this morning just sent me this video showing the situation there. I’m told a large majority of the migrants are Haitians and more are crossing into the US and arriving at the bridge by the minute. BP w/ limited manpower @FoxNews
NEW: Another stunning image from our @FoxNews drone team showing the situation at the international bridge in Del Rio, TX, where a law enforcement source tells me there are more than 8,000 migrants waiting to be processed by Border Patrol after crossing illegally into the U.S.

**NEW**: After an incident at a Whataburger, police in La Joya, TX say they’ve learned illegal immigrants who test positive for COVID-19 are being released from federal custody to a local Catholic charity in the RGV which then places them in local hotels without notice. @FoxNews
FOX News has reached out to the charity and is waiting to hear back. On Saturday morning, our crew in the RGV shot video of Border Patrol dropping off dozens of migrants at the charity in downtown McAllen.
A local journalist in the RGV reports that one local politician, the Hidalgo County Judge, has released a statement on this.

NEW: An absolutely massive group of 350+ migrants have arrived at the border fence here in Del Rio. They are from all around the world. Haiti. Africa. Brazil. Colombia. Very few from Northern Triangle. More are streaming down the path from the Rio Grande after crossing. @FoxNews
This couple is from Ghana. They speak English. She is a baker, he is an electrician. They left Ghana in January. Flew into Brazil. Went through Bolivia, eventually got to Mexico, then made their way here to the border. They’re planning to go to Hartford, CT. @FoxNews
Another journalist here asked this migrant what she thinks about President Biden. She responded “Gracias al Presidente Biden por la oportunidad de venir aqui ahora.”
(Thanks to President Biden for the opportunity to come here now.)
Some tell us now is the time to come. @FoxNews

BREAKING: CBP reports 188,829 encounters with migrants at our Southwest border during the month of June, another increase over May’s 20 year high record number of 180,034.

VP Kamala Harris touted “extreme progress” at the border last month.

901,413 total thru June. @FoxNews
There is no way to spin these numbers. This is not seasonal migration. It’s not slowing down in the extreme heat like it normally does, it is only getting worse. We’ve now had 3 straight months over 170,000 apprehensions.
And when Title 42 goes away, expect an even bigger jump.

NEW: We just arrived in La Joya, TX this morning, and as usual, we are witnessing several groups of migrants crossing into the U.S. They are all walking around the incomplete border wall about a half mile away from us. This group told me they are from Honduras. @FoxNews
Another group of migrants has now crossed over. There is only one Border Patrol pickup truck here. Resources stretched very thin in the Rio Grande Valley. Thunderstorms and flooding aren’t slowing anything down out here. @FoxNews
Massive groups of migrants being apprehended every single morning here in La Joya, TX. This large group is waiting to be placed on a Border Patrol bus, which is already mostly full. @FoxNews
