Original Note:
This was near the border, but not at the crossing. The rush, March 13th, was caused by a rumor that the border was being opened to give them fast-tracked political asylum in the US. Extra border guards were called in and "Most of the crowd had returned to Mexico by 5:30 p.m". https://nypost.com/2023/03/13/video-shows-hundreds-of-migrants-rush-us-mexico-border-bridge/
