Mexican authorities have found 343 migrants, including 103 unaccompanied minors, in an abandoned freight truck container on the side of a highway, the authorities said Monday.
The National Immigration Institute said the trailer was found Sunday night in the steamy Gulf coast state of Veracruz.
It was on a route often used by smugglers to bring people from southeastern Mexico to the U.S. border.
The migrants were well, and it was unclear why the driver fled, authorities said.
