El Paso, TX: Four Migrants Found Dead at Rio Grande Border Crossing

HeadlineJul 27, 2017

The protests came as firefighters in El Paso, Texas, say they discovered the bodies of four migrants—including two children—who died attempting to cross the Rio Grande along the U.S.-Mexico border. The deaths came just days after 10 undocumented immigrants died from heat exposure and asphyxiation after they and dozens of others were crammed into the back of a sweltering tractor-trailer as part of their journey to enter the United States from Mexico. They were found in a Wal-Mart parking lot in San Antonio, Texas.
