Spike in illegal minors, families crossing U.S. border

(CNN)U.S. officials say there’s a notable increase in the number of unaccompanied minors and families crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, presenting worries of a possible new refugee influx.

An increase in the number of such crossings in August is unusual because it is a time of year when the number of undocumented immigrants attempting to cross tends to drop because of the danger from hot temperatures.

Mexican child migrants try border crossings multiple times, study says

The U.S. faced a crisis in 2014 when as many as 10,000 children a month, and another 16,000 adults with children, began arriving at the southwestern border.
