Fox News
The recent rape of a young girl in New York City, allegedly by an illegal Ecuadorian migrant, has brought attention back to the crossing hot spot of Eagle Pass, Texas.
The small Texas city has been at the center of a bitter battle between state and federal authorities for nearly a year, with Gov. Greg Abbott making the popular illegal crossing destination a focal point of "Operation Lone Star" last year.
As part of the operation at Eagle Pass, Texas authorities placed razor wire near popular border crossings, erected a wall of shipping containers near the river, and deployed thousands of Texas National Guard troops and Department of Public Safety officers to the area in a bid to deter illegal immigrants from crossing.
