Calexico border calm after ending of Title 42

CALEXICO, Calif. (KYMA, KECY) - In Calexico, one of the migrants who were held captive inside a stash house in San Luis, Mexico is now in the U.S., able to cross and seek asylum now that Title 42 is over.

Calexico continues to see small groups of migrants coming into the city.

One of those migrants says his journey was traumatic but now he's excited to finally be reunited with his family.

“I am happy that I arrive in the united states but the journey was very bad because we suffered along the way many obstacles," stated Alberto Calzadilla, a Cuban migrant.

Alberto Calzadilla, a Cuban migrant who was one of more than 130 victims kidnapped for several weeks by five men is finally in the U.S.

After he was rescued, he tells us he made an appointment to seek asylum through the 'CBP One' app.

Four hours later, he was able to enter the U.S.

“I’ve been very very bad and thanks to the suspension of Title 42… For that we were able to pass without any problems… Demonstrating credible fear… Something we see in one's country… Like the document that was giving in San Luis Colorado," stated Calzadilla.

The City of Calexico says about 100 migrants have been released into the city but those numbers are expected to rise .

The Calexico Fire Department says the main concern is migrants being exposed to the hot weather as temperatures are expected to climb up this weekend.

“So right now we are seeing the same trickle. We have a predetermined released time and what we are seeing are families and asylum seekers," stated Calexico Fire Department Fire Chief Eduardo Ainza.
