Migrants rush US border fence

Washington Examiner:
Hundreds of Central American migrants rushed a California port of entry near Tijuana on Sunday, blowing past a Mexican police blockade as they desperately seek asylum in the U.S.

Videos and photos of the migrants, including children, were posted to social media. Some of the migrants made it all the way up to the border fence chanting, "Yes we can."

According to the Associated Press, the migrants appeared to pass by Mexican authorities without violence.

The San Diego Twitter account for U.S. Customs and Border Protection said all car traffic lanes at the San Ysidro port of entry had been suspended, as were pedestrian crossings.

With military helicopters flying above, the AP reported that U.S. border agents fired tear gas at migrants as some tried to break through the border fence.

Meanwhile, Mexico reportedly barred all re-entries from the U.S. as Mexican riot police lined up at a customs and immigration plaza.

It appears the first attempt was repelled by the US.  I expect others.  I also would not be surprised to see Democrat open borders advocates try to help those trying to get into the US.
