Turn around don't drown!

Crossing the border illegally is dangerous for many reasons, one being the unpredictable environmental hazards. In RGV, one of the greatest risks is drowning due to the swift currents and changing water depths of the Rio Grande River. The best way to avoid a life-threatening situation is to enter the United States legally through a designated Port of Entry.

On May 2026, Border Patrol Agents from the Rio Grande City Station arrested two men who entered the U.S. illegally near Fronton, Texas. One of the individuals admitted to being an 18th Street Gang member.

Arresting gang affiliated suspects who enter the country illegally, significantly enhances public safety by disrupting criminal networks and reducing violent crime. Gangs are often involved in serious offenses such as drug trafficking, assaults, and other violent acts that threaten communities.

Our streets are safer today thanks to the exceptional work of Rio Grande Valley Border Patrol Agents!

They have successfully removed 30.5 kilograms of dangerous co***ne from circulation, striking a significant blow against criminal networks and their illicit profits. This operation not only interrupts a criminal organization's efforts and causes financial losses, but most importantly it protects our communities from the harms associated with these drugs.

Great job to our dedicated agents for their tireless efforts in keeping our communities safe.
