"An armed militia group of private citizens has agreed to leave their encampment near the U.S.-Mexico border after officials expressed concerns about them brandishing weapons on public property.
"They decided it wasn't worth the fight," Sunland Park, New Mexico, Police Chief Javier Guerra told ABC News on Tuesday.
Members of the group, which calls itself the "United Constitutional Patriots," were seen using military-style attire and firearms to detain dozens of migrant families last week. Video of the encounter was shared widely on social media.
The group has remained camped out near the border in New Mexico and plans to leave the area Wednesday morning, Guerra said.
Federal officials also issued a warning to militia members over the weekend.
"Interference by civilians in law enforcement matters could have public safety and legal consequences for all parties involved," a U.S. Customs and Border Protection official said in a statement.
Private citizens have organized along the southern border for years in attempts to stop immigrants. A group known as the Minuteman Project coordinates volunteers looking to spot and report people that they believe to be crossing into the United States illegally.
"It's our job to support law enforcement, not to be law enforcement," said Howie Morgan, a Minuteman Project leader.
Despite public warnings from federal and local officials, Morgan said that their group only reports what they believe to be illegal activity."

Because tons of boomers I've spoken to were saying, before this came out, that people should be doing this.
Now its being done and woops, ex-con heading it gets arrested by FBI and the rest of the org just collapses instantly while a Hispanic local cop laughs about it.
After 300 spics let themselves be captured on film without a single gun drawn.
Could be real, old boomers cucks and all…but I'm leaning toward an op to dissuade from forming/supporting border militias.

Oh right, it bears noting that the excon inexplicably signed a consent to search form for the FBI to search his home, while knowing that 'his wife's' weapons were in the house.
