(Border Patrol rescues four)....Three of them were juveniles.
The rescue happened Wednesday evening. At around 6:10 that evening the El Centro Border Patrol Station's remote video surveillance systeem recieved a notification from a rescue beacon. The beacon had been activated by an individual who illegally crossed into the United States and was requesting assistance. Agents responded to the beacon location, and they found foot prints heading north. They followed the foot prints, until they found a 15 year old male. He told the agents he had been traveling with a 24 year old female and her two children, a 3 year old male child and a 5 year old fremale child. The teen said the woman was unable to walk. Agents continued to search until they found the woman and her children about a mile and a half north of the US/Mexico border. Welfare checks were conducted on all four, before transporting them back to the El Centro Station for processing.
