Authorities in southern Texas have charged seven individuals after nearly two dozen migrants were found in a secret trailer compartment under dangerous conditions. The incident occurred near San Antonio, where Bexar County Sheriff's Office deputies discovered 26 migrants in a makeshift residence described as a 'shack' with inadequate living conditions.
Sheriff Javier Salazar revealed that the migrants had been smuggled into the area from the border city of Laredo, approximately 160 miles away. The individuals had been confined in the trailer's hidden compartment for three hours amidst scorching temperatures exceeding 90 degrees Fahrenheit, with forecasts predicting temperatures over 100 degrees.
