The border issues are beginning to endanger this region of West Texas. Over the weekend Brownfield police made a traffic stop and discovered human trafficking. The incident occured on the 300 block of Tahoka Highway. The driver had come from El Paso and was attempting to smuggle migrants to Dallas, but they were stopped in Brownfield. The driver was arrested and charged with “smuggling of persons.” In an exclusive interview with Brownfield News and Brownfield Online regarding the border situation, and the human smuggling arrest over the weekend, Brownfield Police Chief Tony Serbantez said, “probably there will be more to come, and not just for us, for the sheriff’s office, and for DPS.” He added, “the concern is going to be we don’t know these people. What criminal activity might come from this or… how it’s going to affect us economically in our area?” He was concerned about public safety.
