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.

An October shooting allegedly between police officers is being investigated as a possible link to the slaying of a sergeant in a Juárez police anti-gang unit, police officials said

Sgt. Aldofo Rios Corral, 35, was found by a patrol officer at 6:10 a.m. Sunday in the passenger seat of his 2001 Grand Marquis stopped on a dirt road known as el camino del Zorro.

Rios, who was in uniform, was shot twice in the head, Chihuahua state investigators said. He had left work at 3:15 a.m. but stayed talking until about 4:30 a.m. with co-workers.

Juárez Public Safety Secretary Marco Antonio Torres Moreno, in a news release, said investigators were looking into an Oct. 21 vehicle-to-vehicle shooting involving Rios and two other officers.
