Florida on Tuesday started bringing immigrant detainees to the second migrant detention center the state has established this summer.

About 115 people are being held at the north Florida facility now, according to a Fox News clip shared by a spokesperson for the Florida Division of Emergency Management.

The spokesperson did not answer whether there have been any deportation flights out of the nearby Lake City airport.

The Fox News clip shows rows of bunk beds with twin-sized green mattresses in one room.

The north Florida detention center can hold about 1,300 people, according to the governor’s office.
