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.

Nearly 40 undocumented immigrants were found hiding behind several feet of bell peppers in a semitractor-trailer early Sunday.

A Tolleson resident was walking by the truck on the 9600 block of West Harrison Street shortly before midnight and told police he saw people getting out of the truck and into a dark-colored SUV.

When police arrived they initially found nine undocumented immigrants in the truck, but they discovered 26 more individuals deep inside the trailer. Two more were discovered in an abandoned trailer by a nearby baseball field. Five children ranging in ages from 3 to 13 were among the immigrants found.
