U.S. Border Patrol apprehended 675 migrants in less than six hours on June 30 after they illegally crossed into Texas.
U.S. Customs officers arrested a 77-year-old man wanted for two counts of indecency with a child at the Texas-Mexico border.
The governor reiterated that while the bridge is back to normal, six others are still backlogged. He says he doesn't plan to back down until other Mexican governors strike a similar to deal to the one with Nuevo Leon.
"President Biden is not doing his job, which has left Texas to come up with its own strategies."
DPS officials believe their all-hands-on-deck effort may have stopped criminals in Mexico from smuggling humans and drugs on the Colombia-Solidarity border bridge.
The delays have been causing major interruptions to the supply chain in North Texas.
Normally it would take trucks 30 to 40 minutes to cross the border. But it is taking some closer to 12 hours.
