Border and Enforcement News According to the Washington Times, sixty-four Border
Patrol agents have been assaulted in the past three months along a 260-mile
stretch of the Arizona-Mexico border — the country's busiest illegal entry
point — as the U.S. government continues to strive for operational control of
the region. As law-enforcement efforts have increased, so have the incidents of
violence and the intensity of the attacks on the agents in the stretch known as
the Tucson sector — which are averaging one assault every two days and are on
pace to increase this year by 80 percent. ***** A Chevrolet Suburban carrying 28 occupants rolled in Yuma, Arizona last week, injuring everyone in the truck. A U.S. Border Patrol agent said every injured person that had been identified thus far was an illegal alien. He said the accident remained under investigation, but there was a clear suspicion that this was a case of alien smuggling. This was far from the first time the Border Patrol had stopped vehicles carrying loads of this size or even more. However, the agent said none of those vehicles had ever crashed. < Back | Index | Next >
