Texas law enforcement officials bust human smuggling operation involving dozens of migrants: 'Cartel related'
Fox News
The Bexar County Sheriff's Office and other agencies in Texas busted a human smuggling operation on Thursday, in which 26 migrants were recovered and seven suspected smugglers were arrested.
While the nationalities of all the migrants were unknown, Salazar said a Guatemalan woman within the group told officials she paid $16,000 to be smuggled into the U.S., calling it "a big money operation." Greg Wehner is a breaking news reporter for Fox News Digital.
The trailer, he added, was coming from the Laredo area, though it is not known whether all the migrants had just crossed into the U.S., or were here already. Story tips and can be sent to Greg.Wehner@Fox.com and on Twitter @GregWehner.
After receiving the tip, the sheriff’s office and multiple other law enforcement agencies followed the trailer to the home that Salazar called an open-air shack with windows open in triple digit temperatures, no air conditioning, no running water, and buckets for toilets.
