At least 49 migrants dead following vehicle crash in Mexico
Many migrants are willing to pay more than $10,000 to be smuggled into the United States in unsafe conditions.
A tractor-trailer with more than 100 migrants crashed Thursday in southern Mexico, killing at least 49 migrants and injuring 58, according to Mexican authorities.
The crash occurred near the border of Guatemala, according to the Washington Post. Director of Civil Protection Luis Manuel García Moreno said the accident appears to have been caused by a mechanical problem, and "According to survivors, the majority appeared to be citizens of Guatemala." https://justthenews.com/world/mexico/least-49-migrants-dead-following-vehicle-crash-mexico
