WESLACO — More than 50 people are in custody and an unknown number of
others escaped after fleeing from a home in Weslaco on Monday
morning, said police spokesman J.P. Rodriguez.
Rodriguez said officers responded about 10 a.m. to a report of
suspicious people at a residence at 806 S. Missouri St. When police
arrived, people began fleeing from the house, including one in a
vehicle. Officers began chasing them.
"Then more people started dumping out of windows and the door and
more and more people began fleeing out," he said. "Further
investigation revealed it was a stash house for illegal immigrants."
With the assistance of Border Patrol, officers arrested more than 50
people, according to Rodriguez. The driver of the vehicle escaped to
Mexico, but authorities seized the 1995 blue Chevrolet Suburban he
was driving.
Rodriguez said officers found little inside the house other than
evidence of many people crammed into it. "Conditions were really
bad inside — there was some rotten food, there was no furniture," he
said. "It just looked like, basically, an abandoned house where a lot
of people were staying."
The individuals arrested remain in the custody of Border Patrol and
the situation is under investigation. Rodriguez praised neighbors in
the area for being vigilant and said the incident drew help from
nearly all personnel. "Even the chief of police was out there
chasing down guys," he said.
