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.

YUMA - Seven preteens and teenagers were arrested near San Luis in southern Arizona Monday morning after authorities say they tried to smuggle more than 115 pounds of marijuana into the country.

Border Patrol spokesman Andrew Patterson says five of the juveniles used rope ladders to climb a fence where agents were lying in wait.

Patterson says each of the boys was carrying a backpack stuffed with marijuana.
