WESLACO – Border Patrol is working to identify a boy who was found in Weslaco on Monday.

Agents tell CHANNEL 5 NEWS the eight-year-old boy speaks a different dialect that they’ve never heard before.

He was taken to the processing center where agents worked with surrounding consulates to determine if he is of Mexican origin.

The federal government will determine how to process the child after an interpreter joins the interrogation process to find answers.
