Migrant crisis shock: Man emerges from suitcase at Swiss train station

July 10: A nearly 6-foot tall man was caught on a surveillance camera emerging from a suitcase at a train station in Switzerland.

Video shot by a Swiss border guard and shared by AllNews247 shows the man’s hand sticking out from the suitcase before officers arrive to fully unzip the bag.

CNN reports that the man was from Eritrea and had packed himself into the suitcase to cross the border from Italy into Switzerland.

The man, who was one of about 3,400 migrants attempting to enter Switzerland’s Ticino region, was ultimately sent back to Italy after being discovered inside the suitcase by border guards. Upi.com
