Laura Acevedo joined the 10News team in April 2017 as a reporter and multimedia journalist.

Some are families, made up of men, women and young children, who say their journey to the U.S.-Mexico border in San Diego was anything but easy.

During ABC 10News’ 48-hour trip to the border, we witnessed migrants arriving close to midnight, waiting to be processed by Border Patrol agents. The station has been operating for almost a year but has been permanent at the border near San Ysidro since September. In that group, a 62-year-old woman was going in and out of consciousness. A Border Patrol agent arrived on the scene to try and help keep her alert until local first responders arrived to take her to a hospital. In that same group, there was also a Bolivian mother with a gash on her head. She did not require hospital treatment.The groups are then lined up, photos taken of their faces and passports, and provided with a tag for their belongings.
