5:40Now PlayingPIEDRAS NEGRAS, Mexico -- Tensions began to rise before dawn as some 2,000 migrants being housed in a shelter in this border city woke up to a massive show of force gathering outside.
Just beyond a chain-linked fence topped with barbed wire, hundreds of Mexican federal, state and local law enforcement officers – clad in riot gear and armed with automatic weapons – stood vigilantly.
Military police soldiers marched in formation in the street behind them.
“Why are they there? We are not criminals,” shouted one migrant inside the fenced-in area.
Migrants are housed inside a warehouse, provided with food, blankets and healthcare but have not been allowed to come and go at will. Mexican officials said the tough stance was needed to ensure their safety.
