Texas police: Migrants found 'suffocating' in train; 2 dead

Police in South Texas said Friday that two migrants were found dead and at least 10 were hospitalized after authorities received a call that they were "suffocating" in a train car traveling near the U.S.-Mexico border.

The Uvalde Police Department said Border Patrol was informed of the phone call and able to stop the train. About 15 migrants were found inside, according to a statement from the department.

The condition of those hospitalized was not immediately known.
