TIJUANA (Border Report) — The first thing Nabeel Younis did when he got up Tuesday morning was head for a store to buy some pants and personal items for himself and three of his fellow migrants.
It was their first day of relative independence in more than a month.
Younis and his friends had been in a migrant detention center since Dec. 8 after being arrested by Mexico’s National Guard for illegally trying to cross the border between Tijuana and San Diego.

They are now staying at a shelter operated by the Salvation Army located in Colonia Libertad, which ironically means “freedom.”
