Houston Hostage Crisis Ends in Shooting and Charges for 17-Year-Old Suspect
TL;DR Summary
A 17-year-old has been charged with kidnapping two migrants in Houston and attempting to ransom them. FBI agents rescued the migrants after days of captivity, which ended in gunfire that killed one suspect. The kidnappers demanded money from the family of at least one of the migrants and were paid, but then they asked for more. In another incident, two migrants were found dead and at least 10 were hospitalized after police received a call that they were "suffocating" in a freight train car traveling near the U.S.-Mexico border.
