EDITOR'S NOTE: This story was updated on Tuesday, June 3, after Homeland Security Investigations issued a correction saying the worksite enforcement encounter happened in Port Isabel and not South Padre Island.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in the Rio Grande Valley arrested 11 undocumented immigrants in a construction site in Port Isabel, according to Homeland Security Investigations.

In a social media post that was originally posted on Monday, and then deleted and re-uploaded on Tuesday, HSI referred to the incident as a “worksite enforcement encounter,” and said all those arrested were from Mexico.

The agency did not say when the encounter happened.

Additional details were not immediately available.
