This morning, what's being
called a mass migration effort,
two separate boats believed to be
involved in sophisticated human smuggling
operations washed up on our coast.
Thanks for joining us at 6:00 AM,
everyone. I'm Eric convert.
And this happened yesterday,
one in Carlsbad,
another in Mission Beach.
And the majority of the people
on those boats got away.
They remain free this morning.
CBS 8 Chris Growe Live in
Mission Beach now to tell us.
What Border Patrol agents are seeing
a change happening along our border,
it seems, Chris.
Yeah, year after year we're
seeing more and more people using
the ocean to cross the border.
In fact, we saw more than 30 people just
yesterday make that really treacherous trip.
Again, this could be dangerous as well too,
as well as expensive, $20,000 at some time.
At some point people pay to be smuggled
across the border using this technique.
Now yesterday again,
we believe more than 30 people use the ocean
as a means to cross into the United States.
Of America, there were seventeen life jackets
found at the Carlsbad Beach yesterday.
And then here in Mission Beach,
lifeguards spotted at least 25
people making their way towards
mission towards Mission Blvd.
Now here's the thing.
Of those people that were believed
again to have made those both
either of those trips yesterday,
five were apprehended.
So again there are still a number
of them that are outstanding.
Now in our conversation with Border
Patrol that we had yesterday,
they tell us that in 2019 660 migrants
were apprehended off our coast,
but last year were more than 25 apprehensions
made at our local sector out at sea.
And of course this comes at a time of
record-breaking apprehensions at the border,
the physical border.
As well too.
So again,
this remains to be an issue.
San Diego on the forefront of
watching and seeing this happen
again with both the ocean as well
as that physical border with Mexico
right there on our doorstep.
And of course,
if we do hear any more word on whether
more apprehensions have been made
with these two groups specifically,
we'll be sure to update you both
here as well as at cbs8.com.
Eric and Netta.
Alright, Chris grow on top of that for us.
Thank you. This morning the Sheriff's
Department investigating after two
deputies were arrested after a bar fight.
The UT reporting this
happened Saturday in Ramona.
The deputies were off duty when they were
arrested on suspicion of public intoxication.
They were then released on Sunday.
They're now on paid
administrative assignment.
Last week another deputy was
arrested on suspicion of bringing
drugs on to jail property.
And last month another deputy
arrested on suspicion of stealing.
Drugs from prescription drop
off locations this morning.
We're now learning a 20 year old Marine
died in a car crash in Oceanside.
You see how banged up that car is?
Authorities say the car veered
off the five yesterday morning,
tumbling down an embankment and
then it landed near Oceanside Blvd.
Investigators say they do not think
alcohol or drugs were a factor.
We still do not know the young woman's name,
but Third Marine aircraft wing officials
do confirm that she was a marine.
And the Sheriff's Department sharing
more information about this crash
that left a car in pieces in Santee.
So we brought this to you
as breaking news yesterday.
Security video catching the
moment that it happened yesterday
at Prospect and Magnolia.
Look at that truck right there
going basically over the sedan.
The Ford Focus ran a red light
were being told and then a
truck plowed right through it.
According to investigators the
front half of that car was ripped
apart that driver taken to the
hospital now with severe injuries.
The truck driver minor injuries,
investigators say neither drugs nor
alcohol believed to be involved in that.
New information here this morning,
nothing suspicious was found at
San Marcos Elementary School after
someone called in a bomb threat.
The school was evacuated yesterday afternoon.
Authorities searched the campus for
hours but say nothing was found.
They're still investigating
who made that threat.
And now San Diego preparing
for an influx of migrants as
Title 42 is expected to expire.
Yeah the Biden administration told
the Supreme Court the pandemic
era policy will end in May.
CBS 8 Dana Marie Mcnichol joining
us live in studio now to explain how
San Diego is getting ready to meet
the needs of migrants hoping to come
to the US data may well the main
concern is having enough resources
to handle the influx now.
The Trump era public health law allowed
the United States to quickly deport
migrants seeking asylum and that
will soon end we're being told now.
We did speak to Council member.
All Campillo he says the region will
be devoting resources to help these
individuals find housing and become stable.
The county is working to create a
response plan to make sure asylum seekers
and refugees do have the resources
so that when San Diego is ready,
the moment Title 42 is lifted,
they can make those moves. Now.
It's too soon to know how large of
an influx that migrants Sandy it's
migrants will see in San Diego.
Excuse me,
the city does expect an increase
with us being a border.
Town as well as a community that
accepts asylums.
Now county member Campillo says other
states busing a lot of their asylum
seekers to places like California,
New York and Massachusetts.
Another reason why we might see
more of them here in San Diego.
Now Jewish Family Services is leading
the effort to shelter migrants here.
Since launching operations
in October of 2018,
they've served more than
125,000 people seeking asylum.
They are hoping other levels of
government will step forward
to support the situation.
We are operating a
non congregate hotels
and are leveraging our our ability
to use an off-site location as
a day centre if you will to
open up capacity in our hotels.
And the Biden administration plans to
end the COVID-19 emergency on May 11th.
There are still court decisions
that must be made to allow Title
42 to end. Of course, we'll keep you updated.
Well, if you see bright lights in
the sky tonight, don't be alarmed.
The Air Force is conducting what
it calls a routine test launch and
an unarmed Minuteman 3 missile
from Vandenberg Space Force
Base in Santa Barbara County.
Now there's a good chance the
missiles Contrail will be briefly
visible from San Diego.
That launch window is
from 11:00 PM to 5:00 AM.
And here we are at 607 talking
about what's going to be the
warmest day of the week.
I'm excited to feel the feels.
Yeah, right. I know I wanna head to
the beach this afternoon because it
is gonna be comfortable out there.
Mid 70s in the afternoon high.
We're looking at chance of making it
toward 80 degrees for some of your
inland valleys, very comfortable.
Looks like temperatures are trending
about 10, in some cases closer to
15 degrees warmer than average.
It's 607 on the clock.
We are still cold out there.
The jacket can definitely help you out.
Start off the morning,
maybe not quite as warm of a jacket
as what you've normally had on,
as most of our coastal temperatures
are in the mid and upper 40s.
To kick off the day,
we'll be in the 50s very quickly
past sunrise in about 1/2 hour,
and then we'll slowly climb
into the 60s and 70s.
Seventies though are expected as early
as 103011 AM in some of your valleys
wind advisory is going to take effect.
It actually already took
effect 7 minutes ago.
It'll last all the way through 6:00
PM on Friday with speeds 15 to 25.
Mph and gusts up to 50 mph.
That's for your inland valleys
and your mountaintops.
We're all gonna feel that wind out there.
Forecast shows we're pretty comfortable.
Again, toasty.
In some cases,
mountains are going to stay
still in the upper 50s,
maybe couple low 60s out there,
deserts in the mid 70s with a few clouds.
Right now our winds are
mainly coming from the East,
Northeast I should say.
You could see how there's more
of a northerly component coming
toward the coastline right now,
but by the time of the afternoon.
Really comes about.
We're gonna pick up on mainly
that that easterly flow.
And right now E County is picking
up on the most intense wind gusts.
Looking at the five day forecast today
and tomorrow are those standout days.
Notably warm will cool down as a
through of low pressure sinks in for
the weekend that will increase cloud cover.
It'll switch up that wind to onshore flow.
So we'll instead start to see that
cool humid air pick up along the
coast and we even have that chance
of showers for Saturday into Sunday.
Drying out for Monday,
temperatures start to kind of
rebalance themselves into the low 60s.
Here's a look at where your temperatures
are walking out the door right now.
Again,
some spots are already in the 50s,
Delmar right now at 51 degrees,
but otherwise most of your coastal
communities are in the 40s.
Let's take a look at traffic as
we start off the day.
See how things are shaping up right now.
It doesn't look like much is
going on out there.
We earlier saw a crash
that was on the eighth.
Now I want to zoom in to a stalled
vehicle that looks to pop up
just around the South Park area.
Looks like that is on the 15 S.
Around at Market Street Lane
blocks with the stalled vehicle,
again not causing any major
backups or delays right now.
We'll zoom in to that area a little
bit more and you can see how there's a
little bit of orange leading up to it,
meaning a little slower in some cases,
but volume is still very
light out there on the 15.
CHP is on scene as well.
Back to you.
Thank you so much, Evan.
