Chief Patrol Agent - Yuma Sector

During a five-day enforcement operation from May 11-15, 2026, Yuma Sector Border Patrol agents arrested 52 individuals illegally present in the United States along major Arizona highways (I-8, I-10, and I-40). Of those arrested, 36 were found actively operating commercial vehicles—many with commercial driver’s licenses issued from California, New York, Washington, and Virginia despite their illegal status. The individuals were nationals of India, Turkey, Mexico, Russia, and El Salvador. Several individuals possessed Employment Authorization Documents, which were obtained during the previous administration that are no longer valid. All individuals were processed and will be deported in accordance with federal law. This operation reinforces our commitment to public safety and the enforcement of immigration laws. #YumaSector #BorderPatrol #cbp #dhs
