BREAKING: Another bus carrying migrants sent from Texas has arrived in downtown Los Angeles, the seventh such bus to arrive in the city since June 14, officials say.
The bus arrived at Union Station around 12:15 p.m., according to the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights. Onboard were 32 adults and 17 children, ranging in ages from 4 months old to 16 years old, the nonprofit said in a statement. Of the total 49 bus riders, 25 were female and 24 were male.
Upon arrival at Union Station, migrants were immediately transported to the receiving center at nearby St. Anthony's Croatian Church, where they met volunteers and staff who provided urgent humanitarian support services such as food, water, clothing, hygiene kits, diapers, toys, health checks and legal immigration orientations.
"As we have before, when we became aware of the bus yesterday, we activated our plan," said Zach Seidl, a deputy mayor of communications.
