Authorities also found a person dead along the mouth of the Tijuana River in Imperial Beach
Amid heavy rain, Border Patrol agents and firefighters rescued 20 people on Thanksgiving night who attempted to cross from Mexico into the San Diego region through a flooded network of drainage pipes.“The lifesaving efforts of these agents, who bravely risk their own lives to save others, makes me proud,” Douglas Harrison, chief patrol agent for the Border Patrol‘s San Diego sector, said in a statement.
Hearing calls for help deep in the pipes, agents and the emergency rescue team located a woman and pulled her to safety, officials said. She told authorities that there were more people trapped.
