San Diego Sector Border Patrol agents apprehended nearly 9,000 migrants last week. The report propelled the sector into the busiest position for the second consecutive week. Apprehensions in the Tucson Sector recently fell to below 7,000 per week for the first time in months.
San Diego Sector Chief Patrol Agent Patricia McGurk-Daniel posted a weekly recap on X, crediting her agents with the apprehension of 8,959 migrants during the second week of April. This is up from just under 7,000 one week earlier.
Between April 3 and April 10, San Diego Sector agents apprehended 6,997 migrants. The two-week total of 15,956 migrant apprehensions catapulted the sector into first place.
In contrast, the Tucson Sector, which led the apprehensions reports for the past several months, fell to 13,300 for the two most recent weekly reports by Chief Patrol Agent John Modlin.
For several months, the Tucson Sector averaged more than 10,000 apprehensions per week.
