Texas DPS Engages in High-Speed Chase of Human Smugglers Who Crash into Fence, Flee on Foot — Troopers Chase Down and Arrest Both Men (VIDEO)
President Donald Trump has kept his promise to seal the border upon resuming office in January 2025. Border crossings are down by more than 99 percent as a result of his policies.
Unfortunately, millions of people were let in under the Biden regime’s open border policy of the previous four years. That kind of recklessness will affect the United States for years to come, even with the common-sense policies now in place under the Trump administration.
Texas DPS this month went on a high-speed chase with a human smuggler in Starr County. The driver, Silvano Garcia, was charged with evading arrest and human smuggling.
An illegal alien, a minor from Honduras was caught and handed over to the Border Patrol.
The smuggler originally stopped for a moment and let the illegal alien run out of his Chevrolet Tahoe. He then took off and led the troopers on a high-speed chase before crashing into a fence. Garcia, along with his passenger Lazaro Berrera ran off on foot. They were chased down by DPS troopers and taken into custody. Both were charged with evading arrest and human smuggling of a minor.

Arrests like these are common in Texas considering it is a border state and had massive amounts of illegal aliens invade under Biden.
TGP reported last month of DPS troopers on a high-speed chase of a smuggler carrying 10 illegal aliens in his vehicle, which crashed into a commercial vehicle.

Law and order have been restored under President Trump.
The United States Constitution gives the federal government the authority and the responsibility to protect the country from an invasion under Article IV, Section 4.
“The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.” Article IV, Section 4 of the United States Constitution.
