The trooper from the Texas Department of Public Safety discovered the children inside a SUV, which he reportedly stopped for a check at Kinney County, in the US State of Texas, on Thursday, 23rd March.

Reports claimed that two of the children, aged 7 and 11, were unaccompanied, while the third child inside the car was spotted along with three adults.
