"Memo Warns of MS 13 Plans to Kill Police Officers"
Reported by Ray Pedraza
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Federal agents believe they've intercepted intelligence from the notorious Mara Salvatruchas gang who seem to be planning to assassinate federal and local police in the coming days.
They have forwarded a safety memo to area authorities.
In the intelligence bulletin obtained by Action 4 News, a confidential informant in Virginia claims the Mara Salvatruchas have designated October 30 as "Kill A Law Enforcement Officer Day".
The memo cites the informant as someone who's provided reliable information in the past.
Reliable or not, Valley police aren't taking chances. In Hidalgo, chief Vernon Rosser believes everyone has their guard up."
Throwing hands up in frustration
If even one police officer is killed by an MS-13 member on that date (or any other date forthcoming), it will be one death way too many.

Federal agencies investigating report of shooting near border
Sierra Vista Herald, Sierra Vista Arizona ^ | Oct 8, 20055 | GENTRY BRASWELL

SIERRA VISTA -- Four people believe they were shot at from south of the border on Tuesday, according to the U.S. Border Patrol.
But no evidence has yet been found to substantiate the incident, Border Patrol spokesman Gustavo Soto said Wednesday.
U.S. Forest Service investigators also have not found evidence to support the report.
"They perceived shots having been fired," Border Patrol spokeswoman Andrea Zortman said Thursday. "We turned everything over to the Park Service."
Kym Hall, Coronado National Memorial's superintendent, said four people were stopped as they passed eastbound through the memorial at about 7:45 a.m. for driving erratically. The immediate investigation continued because the vehicle occupied by the four people contained an assortment of firearms.
Upon further questioning by park police, the vehicle occupants told of the incident near the border, west of the Coronado National Memorial property.
Park police then called in Border Patrol agents to take a report since the incident allegedly took place at the U.S.-Mexico border.
But because the alleged victims have revised their report since the originally submitting it to authorities and there is no evidence as yet, Hall said details of the incident report have not been fully disclosed at this time.
