SAN DIEGO (AP) — More than 30 migrants have tested positive for influenza at a major processing center where a flu-stricken teenage boy died, the latest evidence of growing public health threats posed by inadequate facilities to deal with a surge of families and children reaching the U.S. border.It was unclear if anyone ill came in contact with a 16-year-old Guatemalan boy who was held at the facility in McAllen, Texas, and died Monday, a day after he was diagnosed and transferred to a smaller station. Carlos Hernandez Vasquez was detained for six days, twice as long as generally allowed by U.S. law.The processing center is a converted warehouse that holds hundreds of parents and children in large, fenced-in pens that gained international attention last year when it held children separated from their parents. The government closed the facility after the flu outbreak, sent in cleaning crews to disinfect the building and plans to reopen it soon.RELATED: Border officials say migrants from Texas being transferred to San DiegoThe 32 sick children and adults have been quarantined at a smaller processing center, according to a U.S. Border Patrol official who spoke with reporters on condition of anonymity because there is an ongoing investigation. Their ages were unknown.Since December, five children have died after being apprehended by border agents, putting authorities under growing pressure and scrutiny to care for migrant children. Kevin McAleenan, the acting Homeland Security secretary, came under withering criticism Wednesday from a Democratic lawmaker who called the administration's actions with children "inhumane."The Department of Health and Human Services, which cares for unaccompanied migrant children, said Wednesday that a 10-year-old girl from El Salvador died last year after being detained by border authorities in a previously unreported case. The girl died Sept. 29 at an Omaha, Nebraska, hospital of fever and respiratory distress, officials said.RELATED: Flu-related illness stops intake at Texas border patrol centerThe department began caring for the unidentified girl in March 2018, said spokesman Mark Weber, who described her as "medically fragile," with a history of congenital heart defects.With the government running out of space to hold migrants, the Trump administration has been taking dramatic steps to keep up with the influx.The Defense Department said Wednesday that it will provide temporary housing for at least 7,500 men and women who are taken into custody by immigration officials along the border. It will loan tents to the Department of Homeland Security, which will manage the camps.The Defense Department will evaluate six potential sites over the next two weeks: Tucson and Yuma in Arizona and Tornillo, Donna, Laredo and Del Rio in Texas. Tornillo, near El Paso, is where unaccompanied children were housed last year.The Pentagon said military personnel will only erect the tents and won't be involved in operations.The 77,000-square foot (7,155-sq. meter) processing center in McAllen is modeled after a similar facility in Nogales, Arizona, built for an influx of Central Americans in 2014. It has separate pods for boys and girls who came alone and parents with their young children.Some older children are split from their parents to avoid having them mix with much younger children.Texas's Rio Grande Valley, which includes McAllen, is the busiest corridor for illegal crossings. The Border Patrol made 36,681 arrests in the area in April, nearly three of every four coming in family units or as children traveling alone.Border Patrol agents have averaged 69 trips to the hospital a day since Dec. 22 and about 153,000 hours monitoring detained population at hospitals, the official said.Authorities have also cleaned other holding facilities in South Texas, including Brownsville, Corpus Christi, Kingsville and highway checkpoints.Migrants are not being vaccinated at Border Patrol stations, but they may be when hospitalized, the official said. The Border Patrol is offering vaccines to agents working.A previous headline indicated the border center was located in San Diego. This is not the case. The headline has been updated to reflect the correct location of the border center. 4265

SAN DIEGO — Business owners across San Diego County are readying to push back against a potential new round of Coronavirus restrictions.The county could reach the state’s most restrictive purple tier on Tuesday, meaning restaurants, gyms, nail salons and estheticians would all have to stop indoor service.Business owners are now calling this a fight for survival.“We’ve been in the red since March, so the bleeding’s got to stop somewhere,” said Ben Clevenger, who owns Lakeside’s Eastbound Bar and Grill.Clevenger has reduced his staff from 45 to about 15, and he’s now taking shifts running food and cooking in the kitchen. It’s the only way the restaurant can survive amid social distancing restrictions inside, and 100 degree weather outside.“Never do I mind getting my hands dirty, but I would much rather have an employee doing it because it’s money in their pocket,” Clevenger said.The county is on track to move into the state’s most restrictive tier of coronavirus restrictions on Tuesday - largely because of an increase in cases at San Diego State University.On Monday, the county Board of Supervisors will meet behind closed doors to decide whether to take action against the state. Just outside, business owners like Clevenger and Cesar Vallin, a managing partner at Little Italy’s Cloak & Petal, will hold a rally urging the board to act.“Where’s the support from this?” Vallin said. “I just got a property tax bill, I just got a sales tax bill, ,000 that you’re saying I have to pay and if I’m late, it’s a ,000 late fee. But you’re telling me I have to possibly shut down my business again?” 1625

SAN DIEGO — The Saturday after Thanksgiving is normally one when small businesses take center stage, but the Coronavirus has changed everything."We've been in North Park for eight and a half years, and we'd like to try to make it to nine," said Gail Higgins, who owns The Girl Can't Help It vintage shop on Grim Avenue. Higgins says in-store sales are now at about 30 percent, as foot traffic declined amid the pandemic."We give out gloves, if people want to try things on, we make sure everyone has a mask on, we keep the door locked so we can let in a certain amount of people at a time," she said. Normally the Saturday after Thanksgiving - called Small Business Saturday - is one that helps boost sales for mom and pops, with all sorts of pomp and circumstance to welcome the public. This year, the live music, and refreshments that typically line main streets aren't happening."If we want North Park and communities like North Park to be around next year, we have to pull it out this year," said Angela Landsberg, who heads the North Park MaiN Street Association. "We have to come on out to our local shops, shop online and support these small businesses. Keep it local."The association is now helping local retailers beef up their online presence, launching a shop local campaign with an online directory on its webpage, Explore North Park.At North Park's ArtElexia, which specializes in Mexican gifts, art, home decor and gourmet foods, owner Elexia de la Parra says her increased online presence could help for the future."Now when all this comes back to normal, I'll have a really get website," she said. "You just got to keep positive."In that light, Higgins says she has something for any occasion."Come on everybody, get dressed up at home, get dressed up for your next Zoom meeting," she said. "We can find you something for the top half."Something maybe to be found this Small Business Saturday. 1917

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KGTV) -- Governor Gavin Newsom is proposing withholding gas tax funding for cities that don’t build enough housing. The proposal, released Monday, sets higher short-term housing goals that cities and counties would be required to meet. If housing goals aren’t met, “Local Streets and Roads funds may be withheld from any jurisdiction that does not have a compliant housing element and has not zoned and entitled for its updated annual housing goals.”RELATED: California lawmakers want 0 billion toward clean energy, would pay with gas tax fundsIf passed, the plan would withhold gas tax funding for road repairs beginning on July 1, 2023. “Our state’s affordability crisis is undermining the California Dream and the foundations of our economic well-being,” said Governor Newsom. “Families should be able to live near where they work. They shouldn’t live in constant fear of eviction or spend their whole paycheck to keep a roof overhead. That’s increasingly the case throughout California.”According to a news release, the proposal would provide 0 million in support and incentives to help plan and zone for increased housing goals. SB1 was signed into law by Governor Jerry Brown and increased the gas tax by 12 cents per gallon and registration fees by as much as 5. In November of 2018, an effort to repeal the gas tax increase, Proposition 6, failed to pass in a statewide vote. 1421

SAN DIEGO (AP) — A Marine who worked jointly in Iraq with a decorated Navy SEAL accused of murder testified Thursday that the SEAL did not stab a teenage Islamic State prisoner in his care.Marine Staff Sergeant Georgio Kirylo said that he did not see stab wounds on the neck of the dead captive when he moved the body to position it for a so-called "trophy" photo.Kirylo took the stand in the San Diego court-martial of SEAL Chief Edward Gallagher, who is accused of fatally stabbing the adolescent militant in 2017. Gallagher, 40, has pleaded not guilty to murder and attempted murder.His statements followed testimony of an Iraqi general who said he was with the prisoner until he died, and that he did not see Gallagher stab him.Two SEALs previously testified that they saw Gallagher plunge a knife into the prisoner's neck. Kirylo said he was close with the SEALs who said they witnessed the stabbing, but he has since ended those friendships because the men are liars.Kirylo described Gallagher as an "old school" SEAL whose younger team members sometimes complained about his tactics.Kirylo said when he moved the captive a bandage came off the teen's neck and there were no stab wounds. He said some of the men in the platoon took turns taking photos with the body because they were excited that they had coordinated an air strike with Iraqi troops that had killed Islamic State fighters including the captive's commander."This was our unofficial war trophy," he said.Iraqi General Abbas al-Jubouri, whose forces were partnered with U.S. troops, testified that he handed over the wounded militant to SEALs to keep him alive for interrogation.The general was questioned June 3 and video of the testimony was shown to the jury on Thursday.The general said during defense questioning that he did not see Gallagher harm the captive in any way — and if he had, he would have spoken up."If he did any mistake with this kid, or if anyone had from the Navy SEALs, I would have stopped them," al-Jubouri said.Navy medics did their best to save the captive, he said.When he was shown photos of the dead militant with bandages around his neck and tubes in his chest, al-Jubouri said he'd never seen the images before.The general said the militant told him he was 17 years old.The trial resumed a day after officials said a SEAL who testified that it was he — not Gallagher — who killed the wounded prisoner may face perjury charges. The Navy said it is reviewing Corey Scott's statements following his stunning testimony last week.Witnesses had said they saw Gallagher stab a wounded Islamic State captive in the neck and shoot at two civilians during his 2017 tour in Iraq.Scott testified that he actually killed the captive by plugging his breathing tube. Scott said he thought the boy would survive Gallagher's stabbing and wanted to spare him being tortured by Iraqi forces.Prosecutors said Scott had never mentioned the asphyxiation in multiple conversations with them before the trial. Scott said they never asked him the cause of death.The defense has repeatedly argued that Gallagher was being framed by tainted or even false evidence.On Tuesday, the Navy's legal adviser to the commander overseeing the court-martial notified Scott's lawyer, Brian Ferguson, that Scott's testimony could be used against him if he lied.Capt. Donald King's email said Scott's testimony directly contradicted "previous official statements — thus exposing him to prosecution."Cmdr. Tam Lawrence, Naval Special Warfare spokesman, said Scott was granted immunity in exchange for the promise of truthful testimony.Scott's statements were being reviewed but "no decisions have been made," she said.Ferguson declined to comment.Gallagher's superior, Master Chief Petty Officer Brian Alazzawi, testified Tuesday that Gallagher and his platoon were considered "rock stars" after returning from the 2017 deployment to Iraq in which they aided Iraqi forces in ousting ISIS from Mosul.But he noticed some platoon members seemed dejected despite the praise.Alazzawi said Special Operator First Class Craig Miller told him in October 2017 that Gallagher had stabbed a prisoner on May 3 while deployed.Miller told Alazzawi that he was coming forward because Gallagher was being promoted and nominated for a Silver Star.Alazzawi said he trusted Miller and found the report credible. He told the troop commander but the alleged war crime wasn't reported outside SEAL Team 7 until January 2018 — when Alazzawi got word that several SEALs had planned to go as high as the Navy commodore because nothing was being done.Alazzawi did not explain why he and the troop commander had taken no action.___Weber reported from Los Angeles. 4704
