Some needed to be airlifted, and others were treated at the scene.

The discovery was made by Border Patrol agents on railroad tracks parallel to Highway 90 at about 1:30 pm, Uvalde Police Chief Daniel Rodriguez told KENS 5 News

Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin told Texas Public Radio on Friday that the train had been sitting on the track for about three hours – where temperatures reached 87 degrees Friday – before the migrants were found. 

At least five of the migrants were transported to hospitals in San Antonio.

“911 got a call – don’t know if it was from a family member or one of the migrants who were locked in the shipping container,” McLaughlin told the outlet.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations unit said it was investigating the possibility of a human smuggling operation, according to Texas Public Radio.
