Police in South Africa saved 26 people from Ethiopia on Thursday evening. The people were being held in a house in Johannesburg. The police think they might have been victims of human trafficking.
Neighbors told the police about the house. When the police went there, they found 15 people inside with no clothes on. 11 more people were found nearby. They had injuries from trying to escape through a window.
The hurt people were taken to a hospital. The police arrested three suspects. They had an illegal gun. The police are trying to figure out if the 26 people were brought to South Africa by human traffickers.
Last year, the police found 90 people from Ethiopia in a similar situation. They were being held in a house near Johannesburg. The police had been looking for a kidnapped person. They found that person in the same house as the 90 others.
