Two Nicaraguans who went in search of "The American dream" were wounded when some of the wagons of the so-called "train of the death" (the railroad of the Chiapas-Mayab company used by illegals from Central America) derailed.
One of the Nicaraguans lost a leg and the other one had a fracture.
Jose Perez, of 38 years of age (from Nicaragua) had his left leg amputated, while Ariel Delgado, of 25 years of age (also Nicaraguan), and has a fracture in the right foot.
A migrant of Honduran origin passed away and five more were seriously wounded with leg amputations, when the railroad in which they traveled to the United States derailed.
According to the commander of the Municipal Police of this locality, Pedro Narváez Flores, the accident took place near the town of Nizanda.
The railroad of the Chiapas-Mayab company had left the city of Arriaga, Chiapas, which is located about 300 kilometers from the border with Guatemala, with a corn shipment for Mérida, Yucatan; in addition it transported about one thousand illegal immigrants.
Bush's fault. It will only stop when Hillary! is re-elected co-presidente.
Of course the two illegals were named, but the legitimate travelers' stories were all but ignored. Talk about the spin. For all that this article is worth it might as well have been titled, "Free Corn For Everyone!"
Hmmm. So I'm thinking the railroad is complicit in this. Perhaps even charging for the ride?
