Venezuelan migrants seen clashing with Mexican authorities in camp being cleared out
The clashes were in the same spot where migrants rushed into the United States and assaulted Border Patrol agents
Venezuelan migrants were seen clashing with Mexican authorities Monday as police tried clearing out a camp where thousands had been living and using the Rio Grande as a bathroom, U.S. officials said. The Rio Grande separates Texas from Mexico.
Video footage obtained from a Texas Department of Public Safety helicopter above the chaos unfolding in Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico shows the migrants and Mexican federal police officers clashing near the river, which separates Mexico and the United States.
"The river, they were using as a public bathroom," Texas DPS Lt. Christopher Olivarez told Fox News Digital. "You have close to over 1,000 there. It got to the point where they just had to move them out. It was just causing too many issues."
