In Mexico, 39 migrants die in the locked Ciudad Juarez detention center, they were intoxicated by the fumes of a fire. In the penitentiary located on the outskirts of the northern city, a symbol of the American dream, where caravans of Mexicans, Hondurans and Venezuelans in search of a new life go up an immense continent, the fire is the tragic epilogue of a long journey. There are 8 people under investigation for intentional homicide, public police officers and members of private security agencies; a video shows that during the fire they do not open the gates to let the migrants out.

On the night of March 27, in addition to the 39 dead, 29 people were injured by the fire that broke out in the detention center of the National Migration Institute (INM) in the state of Chihuahua.
The wounded were transferred to four hospitals in the area in "even serious" conditions, according to local reports. The number of wounded is still uncertain, it is thought that in addition to Guatemala 13 people came from Honduras, Venezuela, 12 from El Salvador; one person from Ecuador and one from Colombia. The migrants had been arrested that same Monday by INM agents for alleged street disturbances and were held in several cells on the left side of the building that depends on the Mexican federal government. Around 21:30 the fire broke out, an event that highlighted the precarious security situation for the detainees. "They never opened the door for them," said Vinagly Infante, a Venezuelan migrant who was at the gates of the center where her husband was being held.
