California Building Border Wall With New Anti-Climb Feature

New sections of the border wall being built in California have an anti-climbing feature, according to reports.

The top of the barrier being erected along the ocean between San Diego and Tijuana, Mexico, has a "Metal wing or wedge, or a comma on its side with the pointy end hanging over the Mexican side of the border like an awning," according to Fox 5.

Pedro Rios, of the American Friends Service Committee, described the feature as "Techitos," or little rooftops.

"It's an anti-climbing feature that's meant to stop people from scaling the border wall," Rios told the station.

"It's the first of its kind along the U.S.-Mexico border."
