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.

Apr 2, 10:49 PM EDT

MEXICO CITY (AP) -- A suspected drug cartel lieutenant sought in the killings of two police officers has been arrested in the border city of Tijuana, authorities said Monday.

Victor Magno Escobar was among four men and two women detained during a raid Saturday that also uncovered a cache of weapons, the Public Safety Department said in a statement.

"He is considered one of the main operators of the Arellano Felix cartel," the statement said, referring to the Tijuana-based drug gang. "In this raid, federal agents also detained a gang of kidnappers and seized an arsenal of weapons."
