Four migrants die from extreme heat in one weekend, as US Border Patrol warns of possible deadly summer ahead

Four migrants died over the weekend after their bodies could not recover from the brutally hot conditions they encountered after illegally entering the US near El Paso, Texas. 

US Border Patrol confirmed the deaths through a press release Monday, adding that the deaths were among various heat-related rescues agents were part of over the weekend.

'Over a six-hour period, agents in Santa Teresa, NM responded to 6 migrant heat related injuries,' El Paso Border Patrol Chief Anthony Good said on Friday. 

'Temperatures in our region are now reaching triple digits. No arriesgue su vida!' (Spanish for 'Don't risk your life.')

Agents located three of the four migrants who passed while they were still alive on Friday.

'A total of three were transported with life threatening injuries,' revealed the Sunland Park Fire Department who assisted Border Patrol with the rescue.

'The desert environment is extremely unforgiving, especially during the summer months,' the agency added.

'We urge anyone considering crossing illegally to understand the severe risks involved.'

Heat-related deaths are happening in an area just outside of El Paso, where Mexico, Texas and New Mexico. 

The remote desert area, technically in Santa Teresa, New Mexico, is a hot bed for human smuggling where desperate migrants put themselves in the hands of ruthless smugglers. 

Once the migrants sneak into the US illegally, they're told to run for anyway from a few hundreds yard to a few miles to a pick-up location.

If they don't die of heat, break a leg running through the desert, get lost or found by Border Patrol, the migrants who make it to the meet up location will be picked up by a smuggler. 

The smuggler then takes the illegal immigrant to a stash house-- where they will be warehouse in cramped, dirty quarters homes or apartments until they can be transported to another location deeper into the US. 

In the past, smugglers would not send migrants through the desert during the hottest parts of the day, in an effort to keep them safe.

But in the last year, heartless cartels have been using the unforgiving temperatures as a cover, hoping federal agents won't want to brave the heat to track down migrants, sources tell DailyMail.com. 

However, Border Patrol agents do brave triple-digit temperatures to track down smugglers and migrants, but sometimes, the migrants are dead by the time help arrives. 

In response to the death, the agency has deployed specialized rescue teams equipped drones and heat-sensing devices to find people in the desert. 

Since October, the agency has conducted 656 migrant rescues in the El Paso area.
