TAPANATEPEC, Mexico—Several thousand Central American migrants planned to resume their trek through southern Mexico before dawn on Oct. 29, while authorities in that country and Guatemala tried to sort out the killing of an illegal immigrant at a border crossing.
On Sunday, while the band of migrants was resting and reorganizing in Tepanatepec, several hundred in another group more broke through border barriers in the Guatemala town of Tecun Uman just as members of the caravan did more than a week earlier. Those illegal immigrants clashed with Mexican authorities determined not to let the caravan grow or be repeated.
