Migrants sheltered in buses after ICE left them at station in El Paso, police say
By Emily Birnbaum - 12/24/18 05:17 PM EST


Dozens of migrants were sheltered in buses on Sunday night after Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) dropped them off at a Greyhound station in El Paso, Texas, local police told CNN on Monday.

ICE dropped off a group of about 200 migrants at the Greyhound station without warning nearby shelters, volunteers told El Paso Times.
Several buses from El Paso's local transit agency arrived on Sunday night for the migrants to board as they waited at the station, which was too small to hold all of them, according to local reports.

"We weren't going to put 200 people on the streets of El Paso on a cold night," Sgt. Robert Gomez, spokesman with the El Paso Police Department, told CNN. "We wouldn't do that."
