The U.S. Coast Guard is continuing to assist with removals of illegal border crossers. In addition to repatriating those apprehended at sea from Haiti, Cuba and other countries, Coast Guard crew are involved in “alien expulsion flights” in California and Texas.

The U.S. Coast Guard said their officers stopped a 25-foot panga boat carrying 16 migrants about 15 miles off the coast of Mission Bay early Sunday morning. Around midnight, the Coast Guard Cutter Active spotted the disabled vessel drifting roughly one mile south of its position.
