ON THE NET -- RECAP:


SignOnSanDiego.com - UNION-TRIBUNE: "ROCKET LAUNCHER FOUND IN TIJUANA DRUG RAID" (ARTICLE SNIPPET: " Mexican agents are trying to figure out how a rocket launcher used by the U.S. military wound up in a Tijuana house just a block from the U.S.-Mexico border fence. Agents used a search warrant to enter the house Tuesday and found the weapon along with about a ton of marijuana. They already had discovered a truck packed with 2 tons of marijuana in front of the house. Officials with the Federal Agency of Investigation, Mexico's equivalent of the FBI, began searching Colonia Rancho Escondido, a neighborhood in the eastern section of the city, after receiving an anonymous tip that a drug shipment would be arriving in Tijuana. The weapon they found was identified as an AT-4 anti-tank rocket launcher, which is being used in Iraq by the U.S. military. The lightweight, shoulder-fired weapon is considered disposable because it can be fired only once. It is capable of destroying a lightly armored vehicle.") (February 5, 2004) (Read More...)
