LAREDO, TX – U.S. Border Patrol agents assigned to the Laredo South Station rescued two illegal immigrant children who were stranded in the Rio Grande River near the Chacon Creek in South Laredo.
The rescue occurred during the early evening of October 14, when several illegal aliens attempted to cross the river into the United States. As the group made landfall on the U.S. side of the river, they attempted to avoid detection by entering the creek. Several members of the group, including the two children who were with the cartel coyote human smuggler, began to struggle in the swift moving water of the creek.
As the coyote began to lose balance, he let go of one of the children.

The illegal immigrant child was able to find a nearby rock to cling to in the currents. The coyote then abandoned the other child in the creek before returning to Mexico. An agent who responded to the area acted quickly, entered the creek, and rescued the two children from the fast-moving current.
The illegal immigrant children, ages three and six years old, did not require any medical assistance after being rescued. They were returned to their mother who was part of the group of illegals trying to cross into the U.S.
