(El Centro Sector Stats)…They are for the month of August.

The statistics were released last week. They indicate the Border Patrol’s El Centro Sector leads the nation in narcotics seizures. They said the seizures were mostly for methamphetamine, fentanyl and heroin. The El Centro Sector has been a point of emphasis for the Border Patrol and the 70 miles of territory has some of the highest activity rates throughout the country in both illegal border crossings and illegal narcotics seizures, and other illicit activities such as human smuggling.
