“Colonia Libertad is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Tijuana, with its little sheds and houses, stretching along the rusty border fence.

It is a place known for great food and the best car repair shops, but lately, it’s also notorious as the place where tear gas canisters fired by Border Patrol agents have hit garages, gone into kitchens through open windows, and even hit some people directly.

According to the agency, agents stationed along the whole border with Mexico have been attacked —mostly with rocks— nearly 1,000 times during the past year. Of those attacks, 254 have been reported in the San Diego sector, and 170 of them have been in the area just north of Colonia Libertad.
