On Friday, the Honduran caravan tore down the border gate in Guatemala and stormed the border bridge into Mexico.
Mexican authorities clashed with the Honduran migrants and deployed several rounds of tear gas on Friday which resulted in nearly two dozen injuries, including a CNN reporter.
After the Hondurans breached the Guatemala-Mexico border bridge, they were unsure of what to do next so they created a refugee camp.
Hundreds of Honduran males began jumping into the Suchiate River from the bridge:
