TUCSON, Ariz. \u2013 Tucson Sector Border Patrol agents from the Casa Grande Station responded to a 911 call Saturday night, originating from near Sells, Arizona, and found a man with two broken legs in an area inaccessible to helicopters and vehicles.<\/p>\n
The 911 call came from a man who said he left an injured person behind in need of medical help. Agents acquired GPS coordinates from the call and later found a Mexican national unable to walk. Due to the location\u2019s rough terrain and remoteness, six agents had to carry the injured man approximately one mile to the nearest Border Patrol vehicle.<\/p>\n
Agents then linked up with local Emergency Medical Services who transported the man to a Tucson hospital for treatment. He has since been release from the hospital and is in Border Patrol custody pending processing for immigration violations.<\/p>\n
Border Patrol officials urge anyone in distress to call 911 or activate a rescue beacon before becoming a casualty. Smugglers often abandon people in the desert who are unable to keep up with the group.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
