April 9 (UPI) -- Undocumented immigration apprehensions along the southern border fell in March, possibly due to stringent travel restrictions amid the coronavirus pandemic, U.S. Customs and Border Protection said Thursday.
According to new data from the CBP, agents captured 29,953 people in March at the southwest border, a 0.4 percent decrease from 30,074 in February. At regular ports of entry, border patrol turned away 3,984 people in March compared to 6,440 in February.
