Officials say a woman was found dead following a fall from the U.S.-Mexico border wall in Otay Mesa, California Friday.
Police say the woman successfully scaled a 17-foot tall wall before falling from a secondary one and falling 30 feet to her death.
The Mexican Consulate claims fatal and significant injuries since the 30-foot border wall was erected are up 162 percent in the last three years.
“They anticipated, I believe, that border falls would occur, and that that would be a deterrent, and we don’t see that actually happening,” Rios said.
From Fox News:
Border Patrol agents in San Diego have been releasing hundreds of illegal immigrants onto city streets as it struggles to deal with a surge of migrants into the area – just after similar releases had started in Arizona.
