NOGALES, Ariz. - Teams of border officers combed through the Arizona desert about 10 miles north of Mexico on Thursday in search of the lone outstanding suspect in the fatal shooting of a Border Patrol agent. They were on horseback and all-terrain vehicles searching rugged, hard-to-reach spots in a mountainous area just north of Nogales in southeastern Arizona. Officers in patrol cars were searching the perimeter.

The suspect could be in Mexico, or could have tried his luck in Nogales or a nearby town, but he also could be hiding behind the next bush.

...authorities have four suspects in custody and were searching for a fifth. The Border Patrol declined to reveal the country of origin of the suspects.

That last line from the excerpt is unbelievable. Border Patrol will not reveal country of origin of suspects??

Would be nice if someone else besides the Border Patrol finds this guy first. More likely for him to....uh...meet up with an unfortunate accident.

The title immediately calls to mind that scene in Mel Brooks’s Spaceballs. “We ain’t found bleep.”

The suspect could be in Mexico, I believe he already is in Mexico, he is underground and will lay low for a while. Can anybody ID the suspect ? So far they are just saying they are looking for someone who was in a group.If no one can ID the suspect, chances are he will never be caught. Obama should speak out about this.If this happened to a Mexican citizen, their President will be on all the prime time news boardcasts.

Be sure to not profile.

That would be against the law.

First nun they see is obviously the perp.

Are they under orders from the WH not to reveal that these might be muslims? Otherwise what harm could it be in saying they are Mexicans if such is the case? We already know they come across in great numbers, so evidently these criminals are from a different country than the Mexican criminals.

If the suspect is as resourceful as most illegals, he has already stolen a vehicle and driven to another state, but not before stopping to rob someone, buy lots of booze for the trip, and maybe raping some of the local girls.

With 4 suspects already in U.S. custody, one or all of them know who the 5th is. However, Holder’s DOJ undoubtedly has banned interrogation that would yield that or any other pertinent information.

I posted earlier that I think it very strange that they are not identifying the ones who were arrested. Strange, and sinister.

I’m assuming the fifth suspect is shopping at a local Walmart?!

Unless of course the WH thinks this might kill the chances of the Dream Act passing, which could very well be the reason.

I suspect if they’re the wrong nationality this is a catch and release exercise.
