Chinese illegals caught after crossing border in Michigan
What kind of surprised me was that even along our northern border it's mainly Hispanics getting busted.
Three teenage Chinese nationals are being housed in the St. Clair and Washtenaw county jails after being arrested in Clay Township shortly after officials said they illegally crossed the border.
The teens -- ages 16, 17 and 18 -- were picked up by border patrol about 11 p.m. Saturday while walking along M-29 about two miles north of the Walpole Island ferry crossing, agent Kurstan Rosberg said. They were wearing wet clothes, Rosberg said. He didn't know where they crossed the St. Clair River.
Sector Detroit has monitoring stations along Michigan's eastern border from Sault Ste. Marie to Trenton. More than three-quarters of the people arrested by the sector last year were Mexicans, Rosberg said. The majority of the others arrested were from Central American countries such as Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador.
