16-Year-Old Dies in U.S. Border Patrol Custody, the Fifth Migrant Child Death Since December
(HOUSTON) The U.S. government says a 16-year-old Guatemalan died Monday at a Border Patrol station in South Texas, the fifth death of a migrant child since December.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection said in a statement that Border Patrol apprehended the teenager in South Texas Rio Grande Valley on May 13. The agency says the teenager was found unresponsive Monday morning during a welfare check at the agencys Weslaco, Texas, station. The cause of death is unknown.
The agency did not say why the teenager had been detained for a week, but said he was due for placement in a facility for youth operated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Federal law requires the Department of Homeland Security to send minors unaccompanied by a parent or legal guardian to HHS within 72 hours of determining that the child is unaccompanied.
