Two men on the "national terrorist watch list" have been turned over to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) following a routine traffic stop, according to Patagonia Police Chief Ed Dobbertin.
Dobbertin said that on Feb. 12, between 9-9:30 a.m., he was patrolling State Route 82 near milepost 28 when he pulled over a car for a traffic violation.
"There were just indicators that something wasn't right with the vehicle," said Dobbertin. "We searched. My dog indicated that there was the presence of narcotic odor in the vehicle," he added.
Dobbertin said he then called Border Patrol to assist. "They (the driver and passenger) were transported back when we found out that they were on the national terrorist watch list, and the investigation was turned over to Border Patrol and FBI," said Dobbertin. He added that the men were of Middle Eastern descent and had been residing in Sierra Vista. "They were on the list because apparently they were non-U.S. citizens going to Nogales to basically bond out an individual - their associate - who was also a non-U.S. citizen that had been stopped the night before by Customs and Border Protection agents for entering the United States illegally," said Dobbertin.
The Border Patrol did not return numerous calls by press time.

Interesting. If you get any updates, please ping me.
Dang! The terrorists are smart. They just drive across our open borders and flip us the bird.
The MSM will either ignore this or come up with a way to say that they came here through Canada and decided to reside in Arizona. Thus rendering any argument about securing the Mexican border moot.
Paging Juan McCain
Just ran across this one by accident, surfing over at LP (libertypost.org)
Jeez—this was the same day the Hezbollah party planner alias Miguel Garcia was caught at the airport with cocaine and multiple passports. Good work at catching some of the bad guys. Now, if we can just keep them out of the White House.
Arizona just keeps popping up with terrorist stuff.
The Millennium Bomber came through Canada. That would have been monstrous. Don’t have MS-13 coming from Canada though.
These worthless politicians are going to get US KILLED!
So these two were on the list because they were supposed to go bail out one of their buddies? Something doesn’t sound right about that.
“Don’t have MS-13 coming from Canada though”
Geraldo would say that you are a member of the KKK for thinking that LOL
His new book His-Panic says that’s a lie: that gangs come through the southern border.
He’ll give them a Cabinet post in his Administration.
Ping!
I wonder if these were they guys with a red crescent moon and palm tree on their pickup that were driving like douchebags down by McD’s on 92 last month??
Two bags of crap in such a pickup nearly rear-ended me while I was riding my motorcycle. I could hear them yammering in chicken talk when I turned around to get a look at them in case they did anything else stupid and I might be required to describe them to the SV popo.
Someone please explain this to me! Does this say that a friend of an illegal (let alone the fact they are Middle Eastern) can go to the jail where the illegal is being held and put up a bond to get him - out of jail to roam free in The United States of America!
We aren't this idiotic.....are we?
I thought "catch and release" was stopped!
Come'ere Chertoff - I wanna talk with you!
Interesting ping
Next time save us a lot of bother and just use your machine gun...
yes....thanks to liberal judges.....Miranda rule indeed!!
I hope you’re joking.
I’m a little tone deaf in text.
