Tip Leads Mexican Border State Cops to Trailer Holding 141 Young Migrants

GERALD TONY ARANDA 11 Aug 2021

An anonymous tip about a parked tractor-trailer with voices coming from inside led Mexican border state authorities to rescue 141 migrants with hopes of reaching Texas. Almost half of the migrants were underage children and teens suffering from extreme heat and unsanitary conditions at the hands of cartel-connected smugglers.

The case took place this week in the municipality of Juarez, Nuevo Leon, 124 miles south of the border with Texas. Juarez is along a main highway that leads from the Monterrey metropolitan area to the border city of Reynosa.

After getting the 911 call, authorities responded to the intersection of Pedro Garza and Bernardo Reyes Streets in downtown Juarez. The police called for backup and began handing out masks while they waited for paramedics to evaluate the group.

While authorities were tending to the group, two men identified as 34-year-old José Gerardo García Garza and 22-year-old Oscar Alejandro Villarreal Compean approached the trailer to inquire about the scene. Authorities then arrested them after learning they reportedly owned and operated the trailer.
