Click on video "The Fire Within". Here is the link to the article: “On his way up Tecate Peak with six other migrants, Ramirez had stopped to pray at a statue of the Virgin of Guadalupe. But soon after they climbed over the border fence that Sunday, a Santa Ana blew in from the east, and they saw an orange glow rise up from the horizon. Flames raced toward them on 80-mph winds and the 'coyote' they'd hired to guide them into the United States took off, leaving them to face a blaze that was chewing up chaparral like a wild beast.”
