BROWNSVILLE, Texas – The defense department says it is investigating reports of a Mexican military helicopter seen flying in Texas.
Zapata County Sheriff Sigifredo Gonzalez says several people reported seeing the aircraft on Sunday flying over an RV park near Zapata, some 100 miles northwest of McAllen on the border with Mexico.
Border Patrol spokesman Jason Darling says the Mexican military is conducting operations near Zapata along the Rio Grande.
U.S. Department of Defense spokeswoman Maj. Tanya Bradsher says the flyover is under review.
The press relations department duty officer at Mexico's Defense Department told The Associated Press Friday that she has no information on the reports.
A Mexican military helicopter was also spotted March 10 over Zapata County.

It's a bit late to be worrying about an invasion, isn't it? Then again, it's hard to invade what was once yours, isn't it? Not to worry though...if they take over, we can all be "insurgents."
WHAT WAS ONCE YOURS.......WELL IT SEEMS THAT THEY CAN'T KEEP PEACE IN THEIR OWN LITTLE TERRITTORY MUCH LESS IN THE STATE OF TEXAS.AMERICA WASN'T "OURS" EITHER,BUT WE ARE HERE NOW,AND WE ARE NOT TRYING TO GO SOMEWHERE ELSE AND GET EVERYTHING HANDED TO US ON A SILVER PLATTER FOR FREE LIKE THEY DO.FOR EVERY ONE THAT WORKS AND PAYS "TAXES",THERE ARE 100 THAT DON'T,AND THAT IS B.S AND YOU KNOW IT..............I SAY WE SEND THEM A LITTLE MESSAGE TAPED TO A FEW ROUNDS FROM A BLACKHAWK OR APACHE AND DROP THEM RIGHT WHERE THEY ARE FLYING......ASK QUESTIONS LATER.....
This is the second time that this has been reported and I'm still waiting for Governor Perry to make a statement. Guess that he's more concerned with the salvinia plant than he is in protecting Texans.
this is no real treat i wouldnt worry about it
Not only are they crossing the border, and appears our government is not too concerned about this activity. Will not let our Military police the border. Now they are just casually flying over in their helicopter. Getting braver and braver, and conditions are not favorable to seeing this invasion of Mexicans come to an end.
