JACUMBA, Calif. (KGTV) — Clouds rolled over Jacumba as hundreds of asylum seekers prepared for another cold night in the desert on Thursday. “It’s very windy and rainy," a migrant from China told 10News. "It was very cold, and we all slept wearing our winter coats and hats.” Upon approaching the campsite, the migrants built small fires using nearby branches. The puffs of smoke from the wood brought warmth in near-freezing conditions.

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — A service to remember an American hero was held on Coronado Saturday. Staff Sergeant Tom Rice passed away on Nov. 17, 2022, at 101 years old. Loved ones remembered him during a private ceremony and a public ceremony in Coronado. "His first combat jump was on D-Day. The first baptism of fire of the 101st Airborne," recalled retired U.S. Navy Captain Steve Shepard during the eulogy. Rice was wounded four times during World War II and came home in 1945, but his service never ended.
