US-Mexico border apprehensions spike past 45,000 in August

 

Apprehensions of people attempting to illegally enter the United States from Mexico spiked in August after a brief downturn earlier this summer, according to government data released Wednesday afternoon.

 

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers and Border Patrol agents arrested or turned back 46,560 people between and at ports of entry on the southwest border last month.

 

Of that number, 37,544 were people who went around official checkpoints and were caught unlawfully in the U.S. shortly after trespassing.
