Texas Human Smuggling Incident Leaves 9 Dead

Investigators are working to identify the victims in a deadly human smuggling incident in Texas.  At least nine people died after being kept in a sweltering trailer of an 18-wheeler in San Antonio over the weekend.  There were around 30 others found in the trailer at the time who had to be taken to area hospitals, some in critical condition.  

One person is in custody in connection with the incident.  He's been identified as 60 year old James Bradley of Florida.  Authorities are still trying to determine the nationalities of everyone found inside the truck, but word did come down from the Mexican government yesterday that citizens from that country are among the survivors as well as the dead.
