Over 6,997 Asylum-Seekers Surrender at San Diego Border - But You Won't Believe Who Wasn't Among Them!"
Undocumented immigrants, such as those arriving by boat, were not among the 6,997 asylum-seekers who surrendered to San Diego border patrol in the first week of April.
Migrants have the option to seek asylum in the US by crossing the border and immediately presenting themselves to law enforcement.
However, a smaller subset enter the country illegally with no intention of undergoing the asylum process.
The nearly 7,000 migrants from 70 different countries exceeded the typical monthly intake for other sectors.
In recent weeks, the San Diego sector, encompassing most of Southern California's border with Mexico except El Centro and Calexico, received between 6,000 and 8,000 immigrants.
