Undeterred by the federal border wall, illegal immigrants in Texas tried to use a ladder to get past the 19-30 foot border barrier in order to sneak into the country undetected.
Texas troopers rushed to assist US Border Patrol agents who had busted a group of migrants with a huge ladder, tweeted a spokesman for the agency.
'This morning, @TxDPS & US Border Patrol in Mission, TX, apprehended 5 illegal immigrants from Mexico, Honduras, & El Salvador who attempted to breach the border wall using a makeshift ladder.' Lt. Chris Olivarez posted online.
The ladder was between 10 and 15 feet, Olivarez told DailyMail.com.
The migrants were waiting for a smuggler to pick them up, after they had scaled the US border wall Tuesday morning in South Texas.
