Five young migrant children, including an 11-month-old, were found abandoned at the U.S.-Mexico border in scorching temperatures over the weekend, according to government officials.
Eagle Pass Station Border Patrol said it received a call about five girls being found near Normandy, Texas, on Sunday, when the temperature would reach over 100 degrees Fahrenheit.
The children were identified as three Honduran nationals aged 2, 3 and 7 and two Guatemalan nationals, aged 5 and 11 months, U.S. Customs and Border Protection said in a press release.
Officials said the children did not require medical attention and were transported to the Uvalde Station for processing. CBP's Office of Public Affairs told ABC News the five girls were transferred to the custody of the Department of Health and Human Services Tuesday morning.
