Border Patrol agents encountered 16 people registered on the FBI’s terrorist watch list illegally crossing the southern border in February — and appear set to encounter more this fiscal year than they did in the last.
Customs and Border Protection data says a total of 69 people on the FBI’s Terrorist Screening Database have been encountered at the southern border since the fiscal year began in October, compared to a total of 69 across the previous fiscal year, Fox News reported.
