First Wave Of Caravan Reaches Tijuana Across From San Diego.

A contingent of nearly 80 people who went ahead of the migrant caravan arrived Sunday at the border city of Tijuana, across from San Diego.

This group consisted of about 76 people from the LGBT community who arrived ahead of the caravan in buses that were paid for by an anonymous organization. They said they were discriminated against by people in the caravan.

The group told NBC 7’s sister station, Telemundo 20, they plan to go to the port of entry in San Ysidro or Otay Mesa as soon as possible to ask for political asylum.

Most of them are confident they will be granted asylum.
