The number of non-Mexicans who are illegally crossing America’s southern border has more than tripled over the past three years and is on pace this year to soar even higher.

A congressional study has found that only about 37,300 illegal immigrants from countries other than Mexico were caught breaching the border in 2002. This year, through early July, the number has mushroomed to more than 119,000 - mostly from Latin American nations - a surge so far of more than 58 percent.
