VIRAL VIDEO: Border Patrol Agents Save Illegal Aliens Who Fell Off Cliff

TUSCON, AZ – A video went viral of agents with the Border Patrol saving the life of two illegal aliens who had fallen off a 10-foot-cliff. 

According to the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol, on Dec. 22, a Tucson-based UH-60 aircrew along with the Border Patrol Search Trauma and Rescue agents rescued two illegal entrants in the Baboquivari Peak Wilderness area.

The female had fallen off of a 10-foot cliff and suffered numerous abrasions including bleeding from her head.

The aircrew located the two individuals, but due to the terrain, inserted an EMT and an agent via hoist. Once the woman had been evaluated and stabilized, the crew conducted a 95-foot hoist to extract both individuals, the EMT, and the agent.

The UH-60 crew landed near the highway and turned the individuals over to another Border Patrol unit for transportation to the local hospital.
