6 Dead Trying to Enter U.S.

[Darts]

So sad. 6 bodies found from 2 families (one Indian and one Romanian) trying to enter the U.S. from Canada. Apparently, there have been 48 attempts so far in 2023.

Sounds like a local took someone across the river in a boat, and got spooked, or was just a bigger then usual border crossing douche.
And left them in tall marsh grass rather than firm land.

Couple of surprises, at least to me.

One family from India and one family from Romania.

Two of the kids are Canadian born.

Apparently, the Romanian family of 4 was in Canada illegally.

Also, the Indian family.

Romas belong to the Untouchable social caste which have migrated from India to Europe centuries ago to escape persecution by Indians of higher castes.
