In South Texas, a nun's detention drew attention from lawmakers. The woman, a member of a religious order, was taken into custody by federal agents. Details about her case are limited, but it is known that she was on her way to a church service when she was stopped.

The Department of Homeland Security has not commented on the matter. Local church officials had asked the community to pray for the nun's release.
