Stowaways Suspected in Ship's Container Loaded in New Jersey

Authorities in New Jersey are unloading stacked containers from a cargo ship that may contain an undetermined number of stowaways after a Coast Guard team heard sounds consistent with humans coming from a container buried under a stack of others, authorities said.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement public affairs officer Harold Ort told FoxNews.com that over 150 of the 200 targeted containers have been examined and no stowaways were found as of Wednesday evening. The ship is carrying 2,000 containers all together.

"Officials will continue to examine containers overnight," Ort said. "Additional updates will be provided as available."
