Aug 11 (Reuters) - A 3-year-old girl from Venezuela being transported to Chicago from Texas by bus with other migrants died at a local Illinois hospital after showing signs of illness, the Texas Department of Emergency Management said on Friday. Because the girl died in the Chicago area, the Illinois Department of Public Health was investigating her death, a spokesperson told the Chicago Tribune. “IDPH is working with local health officials, state police, and federal authorities to the fullest extent possible to get answers in this tragic situation,” IDPH spokeswoman Lauri Sanders told the Tribune. Texas officials did not release a cause of death for the child but said none of the bus passengers presented with symptoms of fever or illness when they boarded in Brownsville, Texas, which borders Mexico. The officials did not release any identifying information about the child but CBS news reported that she was a girl from Venezuela.
