Border Patrol agents rescued 64 illegal immigrants last weekend—the latest in a string of rescues that have saved 406 from tractor-trailer units in two months.

All 64 from last weekend were discovered at Border Patrol immigration checkpoints near the southwest border; most were found hidden by a K-9.
