STARR COUNTY - ICE officers are looking for the people who smuggled illegal immigrants into Starr County and left two of them to die.
An ICE spokesperson tells NEWSCHANNEL 5 they're following up on leads and hope to make an arrest soon.
The bodies of two were discovered yesterday in the Salineno area. That's along the river north of Starr County.
It's believed the two may have died from heat exposure.
Border Patrol agents took several other immigrants into custody and provided first aid.
