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.

The Arizona Department of Public Safety seized 356 pounds of cocaine worth an estimated $2.6 million in January.

The department said that officers seized the cocaine in two separate traffic stops in Northern Arizona last month. The largest haul came when a DPS officer stopped a commercial tractor-trailer for equipment violations on northbound Interstate 17.

According to the press release, the officer inspected the vehicle and found hundreds of pounds of cocaine inside plastic wrapped cardboard boxes on the floor.
