'When you compare this fiscal year from the previous year, we're up 82% in events and up 44% in apprehensions.'
SAN DIEGO — For a little more than a year, Border Patrol agents have been working in San Diego's waters, expanding their patrols to the San Diego Bay, with the addition of the Border Patrol Marine Unit here in San Diego, modeled after other units around the country.
During COVID, agents say smugglers started to use pleasure crafts to avoid border crossings, attempting to blend in with the boating community to avoid getting caught. "The biggest difference is that acclamation process, so it's kind of a four-step process, we'll initially bring the dog up on the dock and let it get used to that congested marine environment," explains Salling.
