(AP) Police in North Macedonia say they have found 94 migrants packed into a truck in … the country’s southeast.
A police patrol stopped the truck with Macedonian national license plates late Saturday near the town of Radovish, 110 kilometers (68 miles) southeast of the capital, Skopje. The truck driver fled from the scene, police said Sunday.
Police found 94 migrants from Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq and Pakistan packed into the truck cargo area.
The migrants were detained and will be transferred to a migrant shelter in the southern border town of Gevgelija, pending deportation to Greece, where they came from.
