U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials say the man died Thursday after being taken into custody the night before.
He was at the Border Patrol’s station in Lordsburg when he “fell into medical distress.” Agents couldn’t revive him.
CBP didn’t release the man’s name or say where he had been apprehended. The agency’s oversight office will review the death.
