Migrants and asylum-seekers living in San Diego's homeless encampments

A growing number of migrants and asylum-seekers fleeing the authoritarian government in Venezuela, extortionists in Colombia, and drug cartels in Mexico are finding themselves in homeless encampments in San Diego. Immigration advocates warned this would happen when Customs and Border Protection (CBP) began releasing people into the streets last year, and when the county's temporary migrant transit center closed due to lack of funding. From KPBS in San Diego, Gustavo Solis reports.
