On April 30, 2019, Alexa Smith, waits on a stretcher with her friends and family outside a hospital in San Pedro Sula, Honduras, after breaking her leg running ...from a man who tried to assault her.

While Alexa had been planning on migrating to Mexico, she won't be able to as a result of her injury and inability to walk. "I would seek to be more free," said Alexa of her desire to live in Mexico.
