Nineteen stowaways found in delivery van near Eindhoven

The police found a total of 19 undocumented migrants on and around a parking lot on the A67 just south of Eindhoven during the early hours of Tuesday morning, ANP reports.

Patrolling officers noticed a delivery van parked on the parking lot. They checked it out and found 13 people in the cargo area. In the woods next to the parking lot, another six people were found, including a child.

The police don't yet know where these undocumented migrants are from. They were taken to a police station in Eindhoven.

The immigration police are investigating.
