Body Found near Border in Texas Identified as U.S. Airman
by RANDY CLARK 19 Apr 2024
A badly mangled body discovered after being struck by a train on Tuesday near Del Rio, Texas, has been identified as an active-duty airman assigned to Laughlin Air Force Base. The body was initially discovered in the early morning hours after a train conductor made a 911 call to report striking a person on the track. Multiple law enforcement agencies responded to the area just west of Del Rio, approximately 20 miles from the airbase.
As reported by Breitbart Texas, law enforcement officials initially believed the deceased may have been a migrant due to the proximity to the border. A law enforcement source with knowledge of the investigation told Breitbart Texas those initial beliefs were dispelled after evidence from the scene indicated otherwise.
In a press statement issued on Thursday by U.S. Air Force military press officers, officials say the Val Verde County Sheriff’s Office notified Laughlin Air Force Base security forces that a body had been found dead near a railway off base. The deceased was confirmed to be an active-duty airman stationed at Laughlin Air Force Base.
