31 Illegal Immigrants Caught in Major Bust

By KGNS News

Multiple police agencies come together to round up a group of illegal immigrants being housed in a trailer home.

The incident happened Wednesday afternoon in central Laredo.

We understand 31 people, many of them women, were detained in the home at the corner of Springfield and San Pedro.

Our cameras captured the exact moment when the undocumented immigrants were being hauled off in several vans.

The joint operation involved Webb County Sheriff Deputies, Border Patrol and ICE agents.

We're told Immigration and Customs Enforcement authorities are leading the investigation.

parasites and Anonymous, you do not know anything about history , do you? stolen land?? hey remember that this all belonged to the native americans, now who stole who from who?? it's just like anything else, to the winners go the spoils. the Spanish took it from the indians, the mexicans took it from the spanish, the texans took it from mexico, oh forgot santa anna signed it away in exchange for his life. the US took it over from the texans, so, on and so on. i sugest you 2 really learn about history before you talk about things you don't even know about. let me ask you this, would you rather get paid in pesos or dollars??? ahh haa, that is what i thought!!!!!!!!!!!

@ mentally challenged, we all know what would happen to you... The reason for the difference between doing that in Mexico and waving the mexican flag here, is a question of leniency...

gringos didn't steal this land. hispanics also fought for independence from mexico. i'm glad we are not part of mexico. not even mexicans want to live in mexico. they would rather live picking fruit or die crossing a desert that live in their country. slaves to the cartels but they still celebrate their "independence" but mexican girls are hot

I dont get some of you and I mean you "parasites". Mexican when it suits you and American when it suits you. Mexican when you want to insult the United States and put a sticker of the Mexican flag on your cars back windshield, but you hide behind the skirts of the United States because you are afraid of the violence going on in your country, ot when your in line at the foodstamps and welfare place. Talk about being ungrateful. And since when has Laredo made such a big fuss about the fourth of July, which is our country's independence day? You know this is why our city is constantly being put down because of a bunch of ignorant people. Pick a side no? Do you want to be an American or not?

Laredo is older than the United States, maybe some of you need to learn a little about Laredo and not comapare it to the Canadian border. This Land was stolen by the criminal Anglos.

You are all parasites. you eat the lettuce, the tomato, the beans, they built your houses, they cook your food in your favorite restaurant, why do you harrass them? besides, you are all walking on stolen land and one day you are going to pay rent, like it or not. your families all came from Mexico, even some of you went to school in Mexico. All those girls were sex slaves, where is yuor christianity ?? Why do you have that cowardly behavior against the people who are already on the ground and yo0u still keep kicking them? where is your honor? and American principles?

I agree , how many illegals work in this town or get free handouts. Just look at pro 8 coverage of grito which is bigger than the 4th of July in this town. I have lived on the Canadian border and they never celebrated anything Canadian. Wish the army engineering would would reroute the river or maybe make San Antonio the border that is were the good old U.S.A. starts not in Laredo the most un american city in the country go back to Mexico.
