I love this part.....

“Criminals have followed and harassed U.S. citizens traveling in their vehicles, particularly in border areas including Nuevo Laredo, Matamoros, and Tijuana. There is no evidence, however, that U.S. citizens are targeted because of their nationality.”

Right!! How many US Citizens kidnapped last year...50 plus?
How many of their citizens did we kidnap?

No, no , has nothing to do with being an American....

4 dead after truck carrying 50 crashes

An older model Ford pickup truck carrying at least 50 to 60 people crashed around 5:30 a.m. Sunday, leaving four people dead. After the truck rolled over, 20 to 30 fled the scene, including the driver, and have not been found, police say.

Pinal County sheriff’s office spokeswoman Vanessa White said the truck did not strike any other vehicles as it crashed in a remote area just south of Arizona City near the intersection of Sagittarius and Aries Drives.

No identities have been released for the people riding in the truck, White said. The four fatalities, all males, were found dead on the scene, while 18 others were flown to Tucson and Phoenix area hospitals and nine were taken by ambulance for their injuries.

White says the investigators believe alcohol, speed and inattention could all be possible factors in the crash. Police are also looking into the immigration status of the group.
