Overview

• López spent roughly 12–15 hours in secondary inspection from Friday night into Saturday before returning to Mexico through the Brownsville–Matamoros crossing.
• Multiple outlets report his U.S. visa was canceled during the encounter, though CBP and the State Department have not publicly stated a reason.
• The deputy’s office issued a statement calling reports of a detention or investigation false, asserting he continues his legislative work normally.
• Social‑media photos and local witnesses showed him inside U.S. migration offices and his vehicle parked in inspection lanes during the overnight review.
• Some reports say U.S. officials retained his mobile devices, a claim not confirmed by U.S. authorities as broader details of the case remain disputed.
