FORT WORTH, Texas — Jaime Carrillo emerges from his faded pink house wearing blue jeans, boots, and a black cowboy hat. After a long day at work laying cement for city streets, he is ready for a second shift — this time as a volunteer for the Fort Worth Police Department. He straps a walkie-talkie to his collar, slaps a “Citizens on Patrol” sticker on the side of his blue Nissan Sentra, and settles in the driver’s seat, hands gripping the steering wheel decorated with his daughter’s Hello Kitty decals.
“Tigre, Tigre,” Carrillo calls into the radio, addressing his partner. His own code name is “Meneaito,” the title of a popular salsa song. “I like to dance,” he explains in Spanish, shimmying his shoulders.
As he weaves his way around the roughly four miles of his regular patrol route through Polytechnic Heights — a low-income, largely immigrant neighborhood of Fort Worth known as “Poly” by locals — Carrillo, 40, never stops scanning his surroundings. He checks on the paleteros (popsicle sellers) who have been robbed repeatedly, the unsupervised children playing in the street, and the people loitering by the dismal-looking car wash. When he sees something amiss — front yards with mounds of trash (a violation of city code) or possible drug houses (identified by the suspicious number of cars parked out front, night after night) — he uses the radio to call his boss at the police department.

Police are aware that Carrillo, like many Citizens on Patrol participants, is not a citizen. But Fort Worth’s approach to law enforcement treats the city’s undocumented community as an asset — not a target.

Boiling blood time.
So the first time an illegal ‘citizen on patrol’ challenges a legal citizen, in Texas?
He needs to go patrol down on Harry Hines Boulevard
and then get deported. Adios, Puto!
I hope this is one of those contrived and largely fictitious accounts to promote the idea that illegals are an asset to the nation.
He’s so cheerful and happy to be an illegal alien on “patrol.”
Imagine an illegal alien trying to be a volunteer law enforcement officer in virtually any other country.
We need to give these guys guns and put 'em on commission, say 50% of traffic ticket, parking ticket and code violation collected on the spot.
Honky “on patrol” in TOKYO, with the cops understanding I’m illegal:
TOTALLY inconceivable.
They’d all have heart attacks.
So what happens when a US Citizen is accosted by these illegals and pulls his CCW and shoots one dead?
There are Hispanic citizens who could do this sort of thing, if they want an ethnic person to patrol those areas.
Sorry, I’m not suddenly feeling like illegal aliens are now the best at defending our nations laws.
Go back home. That would convince me you are.
Gee whiz what a feel good story, sounds like something Luis Gutiérrez would write.
Ping.
The personalized ‘cold open’ is the lamest of lame media cliches.
‘John Smith arose to just another ordinary day....’
I doubt American citizens have to obey an order from these illegal aliens...
an arrest of an American citizen would be illegal...it could be challenged successfully in court...
Hello big lawsuit...
You know where there’s a real need for citizens to patrol the streets?
Mexico, that’s where.
Send ‘em back.

what a bloody cheek...
I see something amiss...this guy is in the country illegally...(a violation of a federal code/law)...call ICE
Add another crime to the list....impersonating an officer of the law.
The Leftist scum of America practically built their BS BLM out of LEGAL citizen George Zimmerman’s duty in a similar fashion when Zimmerman defended himself from Sir Skittles. There is no conceivable way that these illegals have any standing to arrest or cite ANY legal citizen or alien under the Constitution or local code. Fort Worth is ok with this? Are they retarded? WTF is going on in this country! That’s obviously rhetorical.
