Texas is ground zero for Border Patrol arrests, the Associated Press reports.
Of the 420,789 apprehensions during the Border Patrol’s fiscal year that ended in September, 235,567 of the arrests were made in Texas.
Arizona, which often is the busiest border, saw 125,942 arrests.
Border Patrol Chief Michael Fisher said the increase in Texas arrests is largely due to an influx of immigrants from Central America.
