A migrant died on Tuesday trying to reach Britain through the Channel Tunnel, French authorities in the Pas-de-Calais region have confirmed.
One of the six sections of the tunnel was closed for investigation, but train traffic had not stopped. It was as yet unclear how the migrant died.
“Following the detection of migrants on a freight shuttle early this morning, the shuttle was immediately stopped,” said the Pas-de-Calais prefecture, the local state authority.
“During a security inspection by border police, a deceased migrant was found in the tunnel”, it said in a statement.
Gilles Debove, of the police union Unité SGP-Police FO, said: "Around 400 migrants arrived and besieged the tunnel, as they do almost every night. One managed to board a freight shuttle and unfortunately fell off, losing his life."

“Migrant”. Drink!
Unlike our lengthy border with Mexico, the problem in this case seems easily solved.
Flood the tunnel once a day?
...unfortunately fell off, losing his life.”

I fail to see what part of this is “unfortunate”.

I would have designed it with a "flush" mechanism.
Probably a better idea. Illegals are invaders. It makes no difference that the damage they do is physical or economic. The result is the same and they are enemies.
