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.

Agents arrest 36 illegal aliens on freight train

FROM STAFF REPORTS
Jun 27, 2006

A caller's tip to the U.S. Border Patrol led to the arrests of 36 illegal immigrants Tuesday morning who were hiding in two parked freight train cars near Wellton.

Two among the group were identified as alleged alien smugglers, who will be prosecuted on federal smuggling charges, the patrol said in a news release.

Border Patrol agents assigned to the patrol's Wellton Station received a call around 5 a.m. from an area resident who reported seeing suspicious-looking people aboard a freight train that was stationary on railroad siding near Wellton, the patrol said.
