CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico (KTRK) -- A Texas teenager gave her father, who has been deported, the opportunity to see her before she graduated high school by crossing the border to see him.
Leslie Silva tweeted a video of their brief reunion before she walked the stage.
Silva said that her father has been deported three times. He's now in Ciudad Jaurez, Mexico.
She crossed the border on June 3, so he could see her in her cap and gown before she graduated from Eastlake High School in El Paso.
