Some of the 400 or so refugees from Central America who have moved in a "caravan" across Mexico to the U.S. border have illegally crossed into the United States, federal officials said on Saturday.

"A pregnant woman and some children as young as 4 were detected entering the U.S. through a canyon," the Los Angeles Times reported.
