In October, the most damaging wildfires in California history devastated homes, business

and structures, displacing thousands.

From vineyards to neighborhoods, at least 245,000 acres were burned.

These fires ruined countless lives, homes, jobs and communities that were built over decades.

The Red Cross was there.

Along with our partners, we opened emergency shelters, providing nearly 30,000 overnight stays.

We provided nearly 200,000 meals and snacks.

Our health and mental health workers were there too to offer support and care for those

affected by these fires.

And we distributed thousands of emergency relief items and comfort kits

to help those left with nothing.

The Red Cross will be there in the weeks and months to come

to help people recover and rebuild their lives.

To our partners and volunteers, we say, "thank you".

To those left to rebuild, we say, "we are with you."

BREAKING NEWS Out Of California - Duration: 3:02.

BREAKING NEWS Out Of California Thirty illegal aliens trying to cross into

the United States from Mexico through a hidden tunnel spanning the border were detained by

authorities in San Diego early Saturday.The tunnel, with a ladder inside, was spotted

near San Diego�s Otay Mesa border crossing, authorities said.

Border agents happened upon it at 1 a.m.

Saturday after arresting a group of 30 people who had just been smuggled into the U.S. through

the tunnel.

The group included 23 Chinese nationals, including two women, FOX reported.

The group also included seven Mexicans, including three women.While subterranean tunnels are

not a new occurrence along the California-Mexico border, they are more commonly utilized by

transnational criminal organizations to smuggle narcotics,� U.S. Immigration and Customs

Enforcement spokeswoman Virginia Kice told KNSD-TV.

�However, as this case demonstrates, law enforcement has also identified instances

where such tunnels were used to facilitate human smuggling.�

Some in the group tried to run off when agents approached them.

Others ran back into the tunnel.

Those who were detained were taken to the border patrol station in Chula Vista to be

questioned, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported.

The tunnel was near a fence line and hidden by dry brush and branches, according to reports.

The tunnel�s entrance was in a building in the Garita de Otay area in Tijuana, more

than 300 feet south of the U.S.- Mexico border, KNSD reported.Authorities say the tunnel,

which stretched about a mile, may be an extension of an incomplete tunnel previously discovered

by Mexican authorities.

The arrest of Chinese nationals at the U.S.-Mexico border also signals a new trend.

The Union-Tribune reported in June that the number of unauthorized Chinese immigrants

coming to San Diego has skyrocketed in recent years.

Border Patrol agents in the San Diego sector apprehended an estimated 663 Chinese nationals

between October and May, compared with 48 Chinese nationals last fiscal year, five in

fiscal 2014 and eight in fiscal 2013, the paper reported.

A Border Patrol spokeswoman told the paper that criminal organizations involved in smuggling

maximize their profits by transporting Chinese immigrants, often charging anywhere from $50,000

to $70,000 per person.

�The further you travel from, the more arrangements these criminal organizations have to make,

the more expensive it will get,� the spokeswoman told the paper.

Mass emigration from China is also fueling the increase.

China has become one of the world�s leading sources of immigrants, the paper reported,

citing a new study.

Members of the San Diego Tunnel Task Force, led by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement�s

Homeland Security Investigations , are currently on scene investigating.

ICE spokeswoman Virginia Kice sent this statement to NBC 7 about the tunnel, which read, in

part:

�While subterranean tunnels are not a new occurrence along the California-Mexico border,

they are more commonly utilized by transnational criminal organizations to smuggle narcotics.

However, as this case demonstrates, law enforcement has also identified instances where such tunnels

were used to facilitate human smuggling.

The probe into the newly discovered tunnel is ongoing and members of the San Diego Tunnel

Task Force are coordinating closely with their law enforcement counterparts in Mexico on

the investigation.

Preliminarily it appears this latest tunnel may be an extension of an incomplete tunnel

previously discovered and seized by Mexican authorities.�

Mark Steyn Blows the Lid Off the Truth About California Jury's Ruling on Kate Steinle's Killer - Duration: 3:23.

During a Thursday appearance on Fox News, conservative commentator Mark Steyn strongly

criticized the acquittal of Jose Ines Garcia Zarate, an illegal immigrant who was charged

in the 2015 murder of 32-year-old Kate Steinle.

As The Western Journal reported, Zarate had been deported multiple times prior to the

incident in which Steinle was killed.

Still, due to the fact that San Francisco is a sanctuary city for illegal immigrants,

Zarate was allowed to go free, despite federal officials requesting that he be detained and

then sent back to Mexico.

Steyn called Zarate's acquittal for the murder of Steinle a "miscarriage of justice,"

noting that her killer will never see justice.

"I think it is a miscarriage of justice in the profoundest sense in that Kate Steinle

is dead because she went for a walk in a popular destination in her own city and her parents

will never see anybody convicted for that crime," he said on "Tucker Carlson Tonight."

"There's no dispute — I mean, this is slightly different from the O.J. (Simpson)

case, where he pretended to look for the real killers for the last 20 years," Steyn added.

"There is no dispute that this guy actually fired the shot, or picked up the gun that

then shot itself and that this gunshot killed Kate Steinle.

And there's no dispute either that this man should not have been in the country, that

in fact he had been deported six times."

Zarate admitted that the shot that killed Steinle came from a gun he had been holding

at the time.

He said he found the firearm wrapped in a piece of cloth on a San Francisco pier and

picked it up.

Then, he said, the gun accidentally fired a bullet which ricocheted off the pier and

hit Steinle in the back, according to KGO.

But Steyn wasn't buying it.

"You don't need to import foreigners to add to your murderer population," he said.

"This guy had a grade-two education.

We're told that the reason he got off is apparently because he's too stupid to understand

what the cops were saying to him.

So he gave conflicting answers about treading on the gun, finding the gun, firing at sea

lions."

"Why are we importing, and why is one political party, the entire bureaucracy and two-thirds

of the remaining political party fetishizing and sentimentalizing immigrants who can't

speak the language with a grade-two education and setting up competing jurisdictions in

this country that protect them at the expense of American citizens?"

Steyn also argued the existence of sanctuary cities themselves, saying that the term itself

doesn't even make sense in context.

"The very term sanctuary city is designed to shut down the argument," he said.

"Because who do you give sanctuary to?

You give sanctuary to refugees, to those fleeing injustice."

"How can there be something called a sanctuary city," he asked, if it is only being used

as a safe haven for criminals?

He explained that "the reason Donald Trump is president is because he declined to operate

with those constraints."

"Most of the other Republican nominees two years ago," he said, were "cowed by that

kind of language, by 'sanctuary city,' and all the rest of it."

Trump himself responded to the verdict on Twitter, calling it "disgraceful."

"The Schumer/Pelosi Democrats are so weak on Crime that they will pay a big price in

the 2018 and 2020 Elections," he warned.
