A British family traveling to France found two migrants hiding in their roof luggage box while traveling. According to the article, "The family stopped at a service station on the A29 in Normandy when they heard a noise coming from the box...upon opening it, they were shocked to find two people hiding inside." A video posted on the news site shows the moment the two migrants were discovered.

Officials said the 16-year-olds from Eritrea and Guinea had targeted the car because of its British number plates and had hoped to reach the UK. However, the family had just arrived in France and were instead driving to their holiday destination.

The migrants were reportedly caught by local police and have since been released. The couple filed a complaint for theft because items of luggage had been removed from the box.
