New footage from Texas shows a group of at least 300 migrants pushing at gates on the U.S.-Mexico border on Monday morning, with a reporter saying that the majority eventually were allowed in.
Bill Melguin, Fox News‘s correspondent, filmed the scenes at the Del Rio crossing, 150 miles west of San Antonio.
‘A Border Patrol agent told me this was the biggest single group he’s ever seen in Del Rio & that they’re glad troopers from Florida & Nebraska were here to help man the gate with Texas troopers,’ Melguin tweeted on Monday.
