Agents to Be Deployed Along Arizona Border
From Times Wire Reports
Mexico said it has sent additional migrant-aid agents to its side of the border with Arizona, in advance of volunteer patrols by U.S. anti-immigration activists expected to start Friday.
Mexico has called the patrols “vigilantism” and warned that it will pursue legal complaints against any illegal detentions of migrants. The U.S. Minuteman Project has said the volunteers will report illegal activity to Border Patrol agents.
