San Diego Lifeguard Lt. Andy Lerum says a 2-year-old girl and a 5-year-old boy were swept away by the river in Tijuana Saturday night and have not been seen since.
Migrants near Border Field State Park reported they may have seen a body in the water early Sunday.
Lifeguards, assisted by San Diego Fire Rescue and the Border Patrol, are searching the area.
Lerum says last week's storms caused the dam upstream to nearly crest and that there is a large amount of water flowing through the area.
