Spanish police found two migrants crammed into tiny hiding spaces in a car — including under the hood — near the Moroccan border on Sunday, the latest example of extreme and potentially deadly risks taken by people flooding into Europe amid the continent's biggest refugee crisis since World War II.
A Civil Guard photo taken after the traffic stop shows one of the migrants stuffed behind the car's engine. The man was suffering from severe dehydration and lack of oxygen, NBC News' U.K. partner ITV reported.
A second man was found under the car's back seats, suffering from the same ailments.
European countries are struggling to deal with the migrant crisis, triggered by people fleeing war, poverty and persecution in Africa and the Middle East.
