Seven police commanders killed Since the beginning of the year, ambush-style shootings have claimed the lives of seven police commanders in Nuevo Laredo, including Dominguez.

The position of police chief stood vacant for weeks after Jose Valdez left to take another municipal position. The city had a hard time finding applicants who weren’t afraid to take the job.

In all, shootings have claimed the lives of 61 people this year in Nuevo Laredo.

The U.S. government has issued a warning to tourists traveling to the border, which has seen a rise in drug violence amid a turf war between the country’s two main drug cartels.

Imagine that job interview:

"So...the six previous hires for this position have been shot and killed. Do you still wish to pursue this position?"

All I can say is that it must pay well.

And we are letting people with these values come into our country at will. Coming to a border town near you!
