YUMA, Arizona (KYMA, KECY) – Border guards in Yuma continue to arrest more people at the border.
Agents say they arrested 74 undocumented immigrants early Monday morning. Another group of 51 people was also found earlier. In April they found 13 groups of more than 50 undocumented immigrants in Yuma.
Yuma Sector agents arrested 1,460 unaccompanied children this year. Agents say child processing takes on the role of a parent, especially for those crossing the line alone.
