According to authorities, the number of Cuban and Haitian boats arriving in the Florida Keys has decreased over the last two weeks. However, on Wednesday, Feb. 1, Border Patrol agents were kept busy with migrant activities in other parts of South Florida.

It was reported by the Border Patrol on Wednesday morning that a twin-outboard engine cabin cruiser
 arrived near Haulover Marina in Northeast Miami-Dade, carrying migrants from three different countries.

The migrants consisted of three individuals from China, one from Haiti, and two from the Dominican Republic.

The landing is being looked into as a "maritime smuggling event," according to Walter Slosar, chief patrol agent in charge of Border Patrol's Miami operations, reports Miami Herald.

According to a statement released by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Air and Marine Operations, a migrant sailboat was halted offshore by its agents, Border Patrol, and U.S. Coast Guard crews off Lake Worth Beach in central Palm Beach County.

The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg.
