SOUTH OF MISSION – The Respite Center in downtown McAllen for families released by Border Patrol said they are continuing to see more than 100 people a day.
CHANNEL 5 NEWS went to the Rio Grande to see if we could find families crossing the border illegally.
The winding dirt roads of Rincon Village in South Mission lead straight to the Rio Grande. The location is one of the popular spots to cross the river.
A CHANNEL 5 NEWS team drove around for about 20 miles before finding two sun-burned, heat exhausted women.
