November 29, 2019



HAVRE, Mont. –Last Tuesday evening, Border Patrol agents from the Plentywood Station encountered a vehicle that illegally crossed into the Unites States. The vehicle, which crossed at a place other than a designated place of inspection or a U. S. port of entry, was driven by a Romanian citizen. The vehicle was seized and the subject is being processed for the illegal entry and is awaiting removal proceedings.

“I am proud of our agents’ diligence in maintaining a watchful eye on the U.S./Canada border,” said Chief Patrol Agent Sean McGoffin. “In the course of our duties it is important to be vigilant to keep America safe”.

As America’s unified border agency, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) protects the United States against terrorist threats and prevents the illegal entry of people and dangerous materials into the United States, while facilitating lawful travel and trade. Additionally, CBP routinely conducts inspection operations on arriving and departing international flights and intercepts narcotics, weapons, currency, prohibited agriculture products, and other illicit items.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection welcomes assistance from the community. Individuals can report suspicious activity to Border Patrol by calling 800 BE ALERT or (800) 232-5378. All calls will be answered and remain anonymous.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection is the unified border agency within the Department of Homeland Security charged with the management, control and protection of our nation's borders at and between official ports of entry. CBP is charged with securing the borders of the United States while enforcing hundreds of laws and facilitating lawful trade and travel.
