BROWNSVILLE, Texas — The head of a migrant shelter where a driver plowed through 18 people on Sunday opened up about the traumatic collision on Tuesday, saying the incident was something"we've never experienced in this town."
Maldonado said local nonprofit groups provided crisis"counselors" to help and support families that witnessed or were affected by the collision. Authorities have yet to release the identities of the eight victims who were killed, and seven victims remained in the hospital as of Tuesday. Department of Homeland Security officials under the Biden administration say a return to Title 8 processing will cut back on repeat border crossings by the same individuals. Under Title 42, summary expulsions generated no legal consequences for repeat border crossings.
