News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

SAN YSIDRO – A National City police car was rammed by a fleeing suspect's car just north of the U.S.-Mexico border yesterday, authorities said.

The crash was one of two incidents that slowed vehicles crossing the border into Mexico yesterday morning.

National City police had been pursuing the vehicle after its driver failed to stop in Chula Vista for what police described later as a minor traffic violation. The motorist headed south on Interstate 805 around 10 a.m.

The pursuit eventually ended on Interstate 5 just north of the U.S.-Mexico border crossing in San Ysidro, and the driver was arrested, said California Highway Patrol Officer Alicia Contreras. No one was injured in the crash.
