123 migrants found trapped inside trailer in Mexico

Mexican authorities have found 123 people from neighbouring countries trapped in a trailer in the central state of San Luis Potosi.
 
Most of those found were from Guatemala, Nicaragua and Honduras.
 
Mexico's National Migration Institute says the migrants were found after a local resident reported hearing cries from a locked trailer box.
 
Some of those found were also from El Salvador, Ecuador and Cuba.
 
It is unclear if those found in the trailer are part of a 7,000-strong migrant caravan currently making its way from southern Mexico to the United States.
 
US authorities have detained more than 2.2 million migrants along the US-Mexico border since last October.
