A rustic boat packed with Haitian nationals attempting to reach the U.S. was interdicted by border authorities this week.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Commissioner Rodney Scott just released images and details from the stunning maritime bust.
Aerial footage shows a yola-style vessel overloaded with passengers heading northeast, potentially in the direction of Puerto Rico.
Outstanding work by @CBPAMO, @USCG, and our international partners.

This week, Air Interdiction Agents located a vessel carrying 240 migrants from Haiti attempting an illegal maritime migration. The overcrowded vessel was taking on water and in danger of sinking.

CBP Air and Marine Operations, working alongside the U.S. Coast Guard and international partners, intercepted the watercraft, which was taking on water and at risk of sinking.
In total, 240 Haitians were removed from the boat, although their current whereabouts remain unclear.
“Our personnel helped prevent what could have been a catastrophic loss of life while stopping yet another illegal migration attempt,” Commissioner Scott stated.
“The message remains clear: illegal maritime migration is dangerous, it is not worth the risk, and you will not gain entry into the US.”
The Trump administration continues an aggressive campaign to combat illegal migration at sea, as we frequently report.

Which means they picked them up and brought them into the interior of the US instead of sinking that boat full of stinky dog/cat eating groids.
Another WIN for Maga and Plump!
More cultural enrichment for America.
Send em to Cuba and they’ll become part of the collateral damage when tough guy Trump teaches those Cubans who’s the boss.
You can’t spell n*igger without N
