Conditions are rapidly deteriorating inside the makeshift refuge at the Unidad Deportiva Benito Juárez sports center in Tijuana, where about 4,500 Central American migrants are sheltered, and Tijuana officials are scrambling to find another location for new arrivals.
Federal officials on both sides of the border estimated another 1,200 migrants arrived by bus and foot from Mexicali between Tuesday night and Wednesday afternoon, adding to the already cramped and unsanitary state inside the sports arena.
Thousands more Central Americans traveling through Mexico are on the way to Tijuana, according to the latest estimates from U.S. Customs and Border Protection field offices. They calculate about 2,300 more people in caravans are trudging through the Mexican states of Jalisco and Querétaro towards Baja California, with a likely destination of Tijuana.
