Texas National Guard Deploys Tear Gas, Pepper Spray Against Migrants in Eagle Pass and Brownsville Amid Heightened Border Security Efforts
Oct 17, 2024, 10:25 PM
The Texas National Guard has intensified its efforts to manage illegal immigration at the southern border, particularly in Eagle Pass and Brownsville. Utilizing advanced technology such as thermal imaging and GPS, drone operators are monitoring the border continuously. In a recent incident at Shelby Park in Eagle Pass, National Guard soldiers reportedly deployed tear gas and rubber bullets against migrants, including families with children, who were attempting to cross the Rio Grande. Videos from the scene show the soldiers using pepper spray and firing pepper balls to disperse groups of migrants. These actions are part of Texas's broader strategy to secure its border and deter illegal crossings.
