#ICYMI: 9/30/25, a smuggler driving a Nissan led Texas DPS Troopers on a high-speed pursuit through Webb Co. The chase came to an end near the Rio Grande, where the driver bailed out along with multiple illegal immigrants. The smuggler swam back to Mexico, but Troopers apprehended five illegal immigrants and referred them to the U.S. Border Patrol. Outstanding teamwork by our DPS Troopers who maintained control and composure during this high-risk pursuit — keeping the public safe while coordinating with our federal partners. #OperationLoneStar #TexasDPS #BorderSecurity #PublicSafety #LawEnforcement

BORDER UPDATE: Out this morning in Eagle Pass, Texas, showing areas along the Rio Grande recently used for illegal crossings involving special interest immigrants & unaccompanied children. Texas DPS Troopers & National Guard forces have secured the area, preventing illegal border crossings. One thing of interest is the presence of colored wristbands littered on the ground. This type of trend has been used by the Cartels that operate across the Rio Grande Valley but now is being used in Eagle Pass. The wristbands are placed on illegal immigrants before crossing the Rio Grande, indicating they paid the Cartel to cross the Rio Grande in designated areas. #BorderSecurity #OperationLoneStar

🚨 WATCH: Human Smuggling Attempt Disrupted | Special Interest Alien Captured 🚨 On October 30, 2025, Texas DPS Tracking K-9 ZITA was on the trail once again—this time assisting the DPS Brush Team and U.S. Border Patrol along the Rio Grande in Roma, Starr Co. A raft loaded with multiple illegal immigrants was spotted crossing from Mexico. As Troopers and Agents moved in, K-9 ZITA led the team straight to the area where the raft made landfall. In a coordinated effort, 13 illegal immigrants were apprehended, including the smuggler from Mexico—taken into custody by U.S. Border Patrol. Among those captured was a special interest alien from Turkey, identified as Selcuk Furkan Yilmaz. This is another example of Texas DPS and our federal partners working together under Operation Lone Star to stop human smuggling and ensure public safety. #TexasDPS #OperationLoneStar #BorderSecurity #PublicSafety #K9Zita #Teamwork #StarrCounty
