Good News From Texas

One America News is reporting today that authorities in Texas rescued dozens of people who were being held hostage in a home in Houston in a suspected human smuggling operation.

The article reports:

Police were alerted to the situation Thursday night after receiving reports of a man running in a neighborhood with just his underwear and yelling that he had been kidnapped. The man directed police to the home where he had escaped.

Upon arrival, authorities found 30 people who were nearly naked inside the home. The victims included 29 men and one woman who said they were being held against their will. Police said they arrested at least three alleged suspects.

…Authorities said the victims were originally picked up near the U.S.-Mexico border and came from countries including Mexico, Honduras and El Salvador. The victims were taken to a local school gym, where they waited for immigration officials.

Another reason our southern border needs to be secure–to protect innocent people from being taken advantage of by coyotes.
