In one recent week, agents in the Border Patrol's Del Rio sector stopped more than 500 African migrants found walking in separate groups along the arid land after splashing across the Rio Grande, children in tow.

That is more than double the total of 211 African migrants who were detained by the Border Patrol along the entire 2,000-mile (3,200-kilometre) U.S.-Mexico border in the 2018 fiscal year.

'We are continuing to see a rise in apprehensions of immigrants from countries not normally encountered in our area,' said Raul Ortiz, head of the US Border Patrol's Del Rio sector.

How are they getting to Mexico? Maybe we should pass them through to Canada.
