Local leaders raising concerns after boat with migrants runs ashore in Carlsbad

CARLSBAD , Calif. – Some North County leaders are raising concerns after a viral video taken over the weekend shows a boat with migrants barreling towards Carlsbad . The video, taken by a Carlsbad man, later shows a group of migrants jumping out to the shore.

“To see it live like that. I mean, even police and border patrol said they never caught it live like I did,” the man who recorded the video said. “So to see one coming toward the shore at 40, 45 miles an hour and not turning, it was like a movie...and the lifeguards were sitting right there, so I thought it was a planned, staged event.”

“I counted 22 people jumping off. It looked like a military exercise,” the man said. “One car, one SUV, and then ten got in it, but they left the rest behind, and they just started walking towards Carlsbad.” “We cannot have people just rushing on boats onto our shores and going into neighborhoods,” Desmond said. “We need harsher penalties on human smugglers. We need the state and federal officials to bring more resources, whether it’s more Coast Guard or National Guard.”
