Border Patrol Agents Attacked While Helping Pregnant Woman
by HollyMatkinU.S. Border Patrol agents were attacked as they tried to help a pregnant Mexican woman at a port of entry.
Progreso, TX – Illegal aliens attacked U.S. Border Patrol agents with rocks as the agents tried to help a distressed pregnant woman at the Progreso Port of Entry on Saturday, the agency said in a press release.
After a group of illegal aliens unsuccessfully attempted to “gain entry to the United States,” Weslaco Station agents noticed them attempting to use a tree to climb up the port, according to the Wednesday press release.
The agents approached the group and saw two individuals up on a bridge and a 25-year-old “woman in distress” on the ground by the base of the tree.
The woman, who agents said was a “Mexican national,” said she was pregnant and complained of back pain.
But as the agents began providing her with medical assistance, the subjects on top of the bridge began pelting them with rocks, the press release read.
The woman was rushed to a safe location, and local emergency medical personnel then transported her to a hospital to be evaluated.
When she is released, she will be “processed accordingly,” the agency said.
The individuals who attacked the agents fled back to Mexico, according to the press release.
The Rio Grande Valley Sector rescued 1,157 people between Oct. 1, 2017 and June 30 – an increase of 53 percent since last year, the agency said.
On Monday, McAllen Station agents saved a three-year-old girl who was abandoned by smugglers as they were taking the child across the Rio Grande River, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
The agents launched a search party for the little girl after they located a group of illegal aliens under a bridge.
The child’s mother said that the smuggler had separated her from her daughter, and that she last saw them “both drifting down the river,” the press release read.
Agents eventually located the child unharmed, walking alone on a roadway, and reunited her with her mother.

Jul 13, 2018 And these are the people the liberals want to come into our country? They do not respect LE, you or me. What makes one think that they would respect our way of life here and not act in a predatory manner?

Jul 13, 2018 The crowd illegals probably thought that she was going to give birth on the spot and that the officer was going to take the baby away from her. The child will likely be separated from her when she does give birth.

Jul 13, 2018 I am Native American Pima and Cherokee. I firmly believe in strict control,in fact, I would completely close down the border for the next 10-20 years. People need to assimilate like the used to I see my county being turned into the Counties these people left. Mostly they no longer even bother to learn the language of the Host Country. I am dumbfounded by "white liberals" because they are mostly self-hating whites and mostly liberal that advocate Throwing open the borders. In any location, be it Town, City, State or Country there are only so many resources. in other words the damn canoe is full. I am sorry for these people but maybe they should learn to fix their homeland and stop flooding other Countries and Changing them. I am 3rd Generation Calif and my people have been here for roughly 10 thousand years. I love America, I Love my fellow Americans I do not want to see America turned into Mexico. My Uncle and grandfather fought and died for this County. The home of the free and land of the brave. All of those people should stay in their own counties and fix their political systems instead of coming to America to change ours. That is my honest opinion.

Jul 13, 2018 @wmc50 I totally agree. If you read the whole of my comment you'll see that I wrote of desperation but lamented that we don't have secure borders. The damn wall is well over-due but I worry it'll never happen.
