TIJUANA, Baja California (GH)
What was announced on social networks as a peaceful demonstration against illegal migration was transformed into an attempt to forcibly enter the shelter of Central Americans located in the Benito Juárez Sports Unit in the North zone.
With slogans such as "Migrants yes, invaders not," "Tijuana gets up" and "Outside Hondurans," among others, a little over 400 people gathered at the Cuauhtémoc roundabout, located in Zona Río, to demonstrate against the arrival of Central American migrants to the city.
"We do not know who they are, a person of good will always have a way to identify themselves to live in another country, this city is very quiet, I am from Tijuana, we do not need people who come to destabilize," said Gabriel Barajas.
As the minutes passed after 9:00 am on Sunday, more people of all ages arrived at the roundabout, dressed in Mexican T-shirts, flags and banners, and singing the national anthem.
"I am here today as an official and as a citizen; I understand the annoyance of the people and I am in favor of legality ", explained Genaro López Moreno, dressed in a T-shirt with the legend" Mex I Can ".
At 10:20 am, coordinators of some of the groups that gathered for the protest opted to start a march towards the shelter.
The group was reduced in the route, nevertheless, some of the demonstrators made clear that they were ready to the physical aggressions if the situation merited it.
"Good people are welcome in Tijuana, they are violent, they come badly; they go up to the mesh, the gabachos put spikes, that all go away, children and adults, I am willing to do whatever it is, it is my moment, "said Ramiro Rosales.
Another of those present, who identified himself only as Alberto, said that the violent actions by some of the sectors of the citizenry are the result of work that the authority is not doing to stop the flow of migrants.
"The authorities do not understand, they have to follow the rules like everyone else, we are a country that anyone can invade, this must stop; what is going to happen, is going to happen, we are willing to do anything, "he assured.
The match
Upon the arrival of the contingent to the Northern Zone, a few meters from the Benito Juárez Sports Unit, the Municipal Public Security Secretariat (SSPM) placed an anti-riot group to receive it.
After not allowing the passage to any of the protesters, a group that tried to enter by force, pushing and kicking the shields of the officers; In addition, they threw bottles of water and tried to attack with a wooden stick.
"We already have time here in Tijuana, try to defend what is Tijuana, this is not to be racist, we want to know what they want; I have a family that crosses and they will not be able to come because they want to close the port, "said a man wearing a balaclava and who wanted to identify only as" Rider ".
Marco Antonio Sotomayor Amezcua, head of the SSPM, announced that there were no people detained in the confrontation as he was in the right to demonstrate.
Although the contingent was disintegrating until it was only 60 people, the group did not allow those who sought to enter the shelter with food for the migrants.
