HIDALGO, Texas -- An Afghan man remained in federal custody in the Valley Monday after being caught illegally entering the country.
U.S. Border Patrol officials told Action 4 News that the 30-year-old man was captured around 3:00 p.m. Friday about 1 mile east of the Hidalgo-Reynosa International Bridge.
As he swam across the Rio Grande, he was quickly apprehended by agents without incident, authorities said.
