A 26-year-old Guatemalan migrant was injured trying to cross the U.S.-Mexico border over the weekend.
According to border patrol agents near San Diego, the woman fell onto pieces of rebar and barbed wire, impaling her side with injuries that were fortunately non-life-threatening.
Agents say the woman had two children, ages 3 and 5, with her at the time and that she was not part of the migrant caravan currently housed in Tijuana.
The local patrol chief said crossing the border illegally is “not only dangerous, but also very foolish” and says she “placed her own life and her children’s lives in peril”.
