As process centers reach their limit, border patrol says some migrants are given court dates, and then released into southern Arizona communities.
TUCSON, Ariz. — A migrant crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border is seeing a new surge of migrants, many in search of asylum, entering the United States in near-record numbers in recent days.
For officials working in the Tucson sector of Customs and Border Protection, resources are stretching thin as they race to process the overwhelming amount of migrants."It's imperative that we do that for the safety of the migrants, for the safety of our workforce and so that our agents can get back out into the field to patrol the border," said Justin Delatorre, the Deputy Chief Patrol Agent for the Tucson sector.
Yousif said"They say you must wait for the bus. There's a bus that's going to pick you [up] here. So I don't know where it's going to bring us."
