Hundreds of Central American migrants attempted to storm a border fence separating Mexico from the United States Sunday amid mounting fears they will be kept in Mexico while their applications for a asylum are processed.

An AFP photographer said the migrants broke away from a peaceful march at a border bridge and tried to climb over a metal border barrier in the attempt to enter the United States.
