A newly erected section of the border wall on the US-Mexico border toppled over in high winds this week. The section fell over onto the Mexicali, Mexico side of the border just across from Calexico, California. Luckily, no one was injured due to the failure. 

According to local agent Carlos Pitones of the United States Department of Customs and Border Patrol, the wall had been recently installed in fresh concrete footings that had yet to cure, CNN reports. The area has been battered by strong winds this week, with gusts reaching strengths of up to 37 miles-per-hour, according to the National Weather Service. 

The scene could be a sign of things to come, should presidential contender Bernie Sanders be elected. At an event in Iowa last week, Sanders, who has been a vocal critic of the wall project and has vowed to disband the Department of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, hinted that he would be open to possibly tearing down the wall, VICE News reports, though only if it was not prohibitively expensive.

Sanders said, “I don’t know how much money it would take to tear down the wall,” adding, ‘We should be investing in the needs of the American people and not in building the wall.” According to the report, when pressed on the issue, Sanders said, “How much is it going to cost to tear it down? If it’s going to cost me millions to tear it down, maybe the money would be better spent on child care in this country.”
