Border Patrol officials are investigating the death of a man from Mexico in a detention center. A CBP statement this week says the 42-year-old was found dead Saturday night in the East Hidalgo Detention Center in La Villa. The man was taken into custody Friday at the Hidalgo Port of Entry after immigration officials say he lied about being a U.S. citizen when in reality he was a Mexican citizen. CBP and La Villa Police investigators say so far, the evidence suggests he took his own life.
