Migrant Detention Camp Under Texas Border Bridge Reaches 9000
“…DEL RIO, Texas — Breitbart Texas was provided video by Congressman Tony Gonzales’ (R-TX) staff showing the mostly Haitian migrants being held in a makeshift detention camp under the Del Rio International Bridge. The head count now stands at 9,000, according to a source within Customs and Border Protection.
The video shows migrants leaving the river after crossing illegally into Del Rio from Ciudad Acuna. In the Thursday footage, migrants can be seen entering the Rio Grande from Mexico to make landfall and enter the camp.
Congressman Gonzales visited the camp on Thursday and relayed the following to Breitbart Texas:
I am at the southern border every week, and this is worse than anything I have ever seen. The Del Rio community and our border patrol agents are doing everything they can, but they are at a breaking point. The only way this crisis ends is with a policy change from the White House…”

NEW: We’ve learned that the FAA just implemented a two week TFR (Temporary Flight Restrictions) over the international bridge in Del Rio, TX, meaning we can no longer fly our FOX drone over it to show images of the thousands of migrants. FAA says “special security reason”. pic.twitter.com/aJrjAPO2Pz
