EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) — Border agents say smugglers abandoned a migrant atop the border wall during the weekend in San Elizario, Texas.

Walter Slosar, the interim chief patrol agent of the U.S. Border Patrol’s El Paso Sector, said agents encountered the individual about 2 a.m. on Saturday.

“Leaving him clinging for his life on top of the border wall,” Slosar wrote on a social media post that started with, “HANGING ON – BORDER WALL RESCUE!”

Agents called on the San Elizario Fire Department and medics from the nearby Fabens, Texas, to help bring him down.

Slosar said the Mexican national was unharmed, but he other migrants in his group will be charged with entering the country illegally and will be processed for removal.

“Smugglers don’t care if you make it. They only care if you pay,” Slosar wrote. “Don’t risk your life. You will be arrested, prosecuted, and deported. THE BORDER IS CLOSED.”
