Migrants converge on Tijuana-San Diego border

Groups of Central American migrants have been converging on the Mexican border city Tijuana for days in their quest to gain entry to the United States. Their presence has drawn Mexican troops,  protesters  and  fiery rhetoric  from President Donald Trump and Mexican officials. As crowds amassed at San Ysidro, around 500 migrants overwhelmed federal and local Mexican police blockades and rushed toward the border, said freelance reporter Alfredo Alvarez, who is in the crowd. — CNN
