The Border Patrol says more than 1,000 migrants crossed the border and surrendered after crossing illegally in the El Paso area.
El Paso Sector Border Patrol Chief Anthony “Scott” Good posted pictures on social media of the migrants being loaded onto buses along the Loop 375 Border Highway.
The large group of migrants made the crossing after social media posts claimed the border was open. Officials say it is the latest case of false stories being posted on social media.
