Six People Found Dead in Union Pacific Boxcar in Laredo, Texas
Police in Laredo, Texas, reported finding six people dead Sunday inside a Union Pacific Railroad boxcar. The city sits on the Mexican border.
A railroad employee discovered the bodies, police said. They described the matter as "an ongoing fluid investigation."
Union Pacific issued a statement saying it was "saddened by this incident and is working closely with law enforcement to investigate."
Authorities did not publicly identify the people or release further details about the probe.
Laredo hit 97 degrees Sunday afternoon. That likely made it feel hotter than 100 degrees inside the boxcar, according to CBS San Antonio affiliate KENS-TV.
Laredo lies 157 miles southwest of San Antonio.
