A heartbreaking incident has come to light as a 3-year-old child, travelling on one of Texas’ migrant buses, tragically passed away en route to Chicago. This somber event marks the first reported death since Texas commenced its practice of transporting refugees and migrants from the US-Mexico border to other states.
Texas authorities released a statement confirming the child’s demise, without disclosing the child’s place of origin or the cause of their illness. According to CBS News, the young girl was reportedly from Venezuela. The Texas Division of Emergency Management expressed their sorrow, stating, “Every loss of life is a tragedy.” They detailed that the bus pulled over once the child exhibited health concerns, and 9-1-1 was promptly called for emergency medical assistance. Despite receiving treatment from paramedics, the child’s life could not be saved, and she succumbed at a hospital.
