The United States Bureau of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) distributed a 55-second video on its social networks showing that a group of more than 100 migrants, all of them Central Americans, cross the wall that It is on the border of Mexico with the help of a ladder. The events occurred on Monday, January 21, in the Yuma, Arizona area. In the video you can see the exact moment in which when crossing the last migrant, a person from the Mexican side, presumably a pollero, moves away from the wall running with the staircase. According to the report of the border authorities, there were 110 people who crossed the wall of almost five meters high that divides both countries; minutes after jumping, they were stopped. Although so far has not been known what will happen to the hundreds of migrants, the video posted by CBP on Twitter, on January 23, already has nearly 30 thousand views. The events occurred one day before the arrest of two men of Honduran origin on the banks of the Colorado River who were trying to enter the United States irregularly, and who are allegedly members of the criminal group of the MS-13.
