I don't think it is all tin foil. Maybe some tin foil but ammo too.
McALLEN - The surge of Central Americans crossing the border illegally appears to be slowing down. Now, there could be a rush of people from other countries.
A CHANNEL 5 NEWS met a group of immigrants from China during a ride-along with Border Patrol agents. The agents said people from more than 143 countries try to enter the United States illegally through the South Texas border.
The agents said the group of Chinese men and women was the second they picked up that day.
Border Patrol Agent Joe Gutierrez is familiar with the area where the group was found.
"Earlier today, me and my partner were here patrolling in the area and we had three Chinese immigrants come up to us directly," Gutierrez said.
"Most people think that it's just people from Mexico or Central America, but we get people from China, from Europe from a whole bunch of different places," the agent said.
The Chinese immigrants were exhausted. Some climbed into the Border Patrol SUV in an effort to cool off.
Gutierrez and his partner passed out water bottles. One of the immigrants became ill in the 100-degree temperatures.
Gutierrez called for help.
"It's extreme heat. That's why we have our BORSTAR agents out here, we have MRT agents, we have agents that are first responders," Gutierrez said.
The Chinese immigrants had no idea they were in the United States.
"They had no clue they were inside the United States, because the smugglers don't tell them that," Gutierrez said.
The agents took the Chinese immigrants to the McAllen station. Gutierrez says groups aren't told the truth about the intense illegal journey into the U.S.
"You can't trust a smuggler. He lies to you from the beginning. He tells you it's going to be a two- to three-hour walk and it turns into two or three days," Gutierrez said.
Gutierrez said people from China sometimes pay up to $30,000 to get into the United States illegally.

MCALLEN, Texas—A single group of illegal aliens entering Texas from Mexico over the weekend included foreign nationals from Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka, according to the National Border Patrol Council (NBPC). The group crossed into the Rio Grande Valley sector from Tamaulipas, Mexico.
“One group of our agents apprehended individuals from Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka,” said Albert Spratte, a spokesman for Local 3307 of the NBPC. “Everyone in this group was an adult male. They entered on Saturday, July 26, 2014. Our agents apprehended them, they did not turn themselves in. They were trying to sneak in.”
Spratte said it is unusual and infrequent for illegal aliens from these nations to appear in the Rio Grande Valley sector. “We have had them in the past, but it isn’t common,” he said. “This should be a reminder to the public that unaccompanied minors and family units are not the only ones crossing into the U.S. illegally. On the same day, I also witnessed 3-4 Chinese females at the processing station. The media are concentrating on the Central American families and minors and they are not covering the fact that we are still getting people, often adult males, who are coming from other nations.”
Breitbart News previously reported on foreign nationals coming from Asia, the Middle East, and terror-prone nations from the Horn of Africa—often entering Central America and utilizing the same pathways and smuggling networks as Central Americans and Mexicans who illegally enter the United States. That report was based on information from the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime. Spratte said, “Border Patrol agents in our sector have in the past apprehended aliens from Iraq, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Israel, and from many other nations. People think this is just about Mexico and Central America, but it isn’t. People from all over the world are trying to sneak into the United States.”
