[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] As roughly 4,000 migrants have crossed the border at Eagle Pass, Texas, in a day, the town issued an emergency declaration as it tries to combat the flood of illegal immigrants coming from Mexico.
Border patrol sources said they join approximately 7,500 other migrants who have handed themselves in over the last week.
According to a source with the Texas Department of Public Safety, a large migrant caravan crossed the Rio Grande, and the thousands are now being held under the bridge in Eagle Pass, with more reportedly on the way, ABC News 7 reported.
Mayor Rolando Salinas of Eagle Pass signed an Emergency Declaration after the new surge of migrants started arriving at the weekend.
