TX - Rescue Workers Save Man Stuck in Border Fence

    Reported by Daisy Martinez



    BROWNSVILLE – Brownsville emergency crews were forced to pry apart bars on the border fence as they worked to save a man who attempted to cross into the U.S. illegally.

    Crews are called to incidents along the border fence at least twice a month. In this case, they used the Jaws of Life since the man's leg got trapped between the fences.

I believe I would have left the corpse there as a stark reminder of possible penalties.

As they "freed" him, they should have given him a strong shove back to the Mexican side!

I think the crew should have tossed the invader a length of rope and told him "Tie that real tight around your thigh so you don't bleed to death when we cut that leg off".
