A migrant processing center in south Texas was closed Tuesday after a Guatemalan teenager died during a flu outbreak. U.S. Customs and Border Protection said it stopped detaining migrants at its center in McAllen after a large number of people came down with flu-like symptoms. In a statement to Fox News, the agency said that to avoid the spread of the illness, it has temporarily suspended intake operations at the McAllen center. The Border Patrol said Monday that a 16-year-old boy from Guatemala died after being detained at the facility for about a week. He was the fifth minor to die after being apprehended by the Border Patrol since December.
