Migrant Woman, Infant Rescued After Man Pushed Them into Texas Border River

BOB PRICE11 May 2019

Del Rio Sector Border Patrol agents rescued a Honduran woman and her nine-month-old infant who nearly drowned in the Rio Grande border river. An unidentified man appeared to shove the woman and her infant child into the river.

Eagle Pass Station marine unit agents patrolling near the Eagle Pass Port of Entry observed a group of people standing on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande. A man appeared to be trying to force a woman and her infant child into the river that separates Texas and Mexico, according to information obtained from Del Rio Sector Border Patrol officials.

The waters of the Rio Grande were moving swiftly due to recent rains. When the woman appeared to be reluctant to get in the water, a man shoved her and the child into the river, officials stated. The current quickly swept the two downstream. Agents reported the woman struggled to keep her baby’s head above the water.
