Border Patrol Closes FRIENDSHIP Park

The U.S. government has closed Friendship Park in San Diego.  The park sits on a bluff overlooking the ocean at Border Field State Park.   “Border Patrol agents formally sealed off access on the U.S. side to the plaza, for years a popular meeting place on the U.S.-Mexico border for families to visit through the fence.” The Department of Homeland Security had announced late last year that it would prohibit public access to the park where a secondary wall is under construction.
