The bodies of more than 50 migrants have been found in the back of a tractor-trailer in a remote area of San Antonio, in what's presumed to be a botched migrant smuggling attempt through the U.S. Sixteen others, including four children, were found alive and taken to hospitals with heat-related illnesses.
The discovery is the worst instance of migrant deaths in recent history, and comes amid a rise in illegal migration into the U.S. across its southern border.
As Eric Sorensen reports, the tragedy comes as the number of attempted crossings surges in the southern U.S.
