LOS ANGELES - Hundreds of detainees from U.S. Customs and Border Protection facilities in Texas and elsewhere are being flown to San Diego for processing beginning on Friday, the agency said.
The agency said the number of people apprehended at the border since Oct. 1 was nearly 520,000, the highest in a decade. In the past week, there was an average of 4,500 arrests a day. Three flights a week will arrive in the San Diego area from the Rio Grande Valley carrying approximately 130 people per flight, a CBP official at the San Diego office said.
