Record drug bust in Michigan involves a Mexican National
President Fox believes deaths of 400 young women in Juarez have been blown out of proportion
This story was on the 10pm Portland, OR news last night but not up on the internet. The area where the two were shooting is very wooded (Larch Mountain, just south of the small town of Corbett), east of Portland.
MamaD - In the last couple of days you posted possibilities of the "Land of Two Rivers". When this story was on the news last night I thought of Portland and it's two rivers, the Willamette and the Columbia.

Two arrested after target practice
June 2, 2005
PORTLAND - Gunfire in a remote part of Multnomah County has sent up red flags at the sheriff's department.
Deputies say Abdullah Shabbaz and a man who calls himself Yassin Abdurahman were shooting assault rifles on Larch Mountain over the weekend. Deputies gave both tickets for trespassing, bt now they've gotten the attention of federal law enforcement.
Officers say they had a duffle bag sitting next to them loaded up with semi-automatic assault rifles, handguns, clips and a gas mask.
Federal agents would not say if they're investigating further.
The two suspects were ticketed for trespassing, and lying to officers. Abdurmahan also had a warrant out for a drug charge.
