A shortage of available Border Patrol agents in Southern California due to an influx of immigrants illegally crossing from Mexico into the United States has forced some entering the United States to hike miles into the country in search of law enforcement.

The Washington Examiner obtained an internal document sent to agents that revealed an incident on Monday in which migrants took it upon themselves to hike 5 miles to a federal police facility in the region to surrender rather than wait for agents to show up at the border, but agents disclosed that these kinds of stragglers are becoming the new normal.
 
According to the government email, around 6 p.m. local time Monday, seven illegal immigrants walked up to the south gate outside the Border Patrol station in Boulevard, California, and turned themselves in.

"Boulevard agents took custody of the seven illegal aliens and escorted them into the processing area for further processing," a Border Patrol official wrote in an email to agents in the region.
