U.S. Border Patrol in southcentral California said it began dropping off migrants at San Bernardino’s Greyhound Station last Wednesday because housing facilities are beyond maximum capacity, according to a report. The move comes amid a surge in migrants – mostly from Central America – crossing the U.S.-Mexico border in recent months. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said that the influx of migrants has overwhelmed U.S. Border Patrol stations originally built to house single adults. The agency said the stations have struggled to keep up with the numbers. CBP's Acting Commissioner John P. Sanders issued a press release Saturday calling the situation at the border a "national emergency."
