0:43Now PlayingChaotic video shows the moment hundreds of migrants stormed across a major bridge linking Mexico to the US.
Footage first shared with Fox News shows the crowd screaming and even jumping for joy Sunday afternoon as they start streaming onto the Paso Del Norte bridge from Juárez under a sign saying “Feliz Viaje,” or happy travels.
The rush followed a rumor that the border was being opened to give them fast-tracked political asylum in the US, according to Mexican outlet Norte Digital.
Many — including elderly and young kids — started running and appealing for others to follow as they raced up the bridge leading to el Paso, Texas.
The group — which Fox estimated was at least 1,000 mostly Venezuelan migrants — then clamored to be let in through gates at the border crossing, with some standing on vehicles as traffic was halted for hours.
