A woman was found dead following a fall from the U.S.-Mexico border wall in Otay Mesa, California, officials say.
The incident occurred around 2:30 p.m. Friday, police told FOX 5 San Diego.
Police say the woman successfully scaled a 17-foot tall wall before falling from a secondary one that is 30 feet tall.
"People more and more are facing traumatic life-altering injuries when they fall, and they injure themselves, or death as the case of this woman," immigration volunteer organizer Pedro Rios told FOX 5 about the news that has spread quickly on the border.
