Border Patrol bust drug smugglers, Brownsville

by Daisy Martinez
*EDIT*

More than 700 pounds of marijuana is off the streets after Border Patrol agents busted a group of drug smugglers along the Rio Grande in a remote area of Brownsville.

Border Patrols agents "It all happened off Flor de Mayo Road on Brownsville's northwest side shortly after 11 a.m. Tuesday."

Full details were not immediately available but Border Patrols agents said they came across a group of drug smugglers along the Rio Grande in that area.

Border Patrol agents said they found 700 pounds of marijuana and a truck that had been stolen in Pharr.

Located off U.S. Highway 281 and along the Rio Grande, the Flor de Mayo neighborhood is a well-documented crossing point for illegal drugs.

  5. From the Brownsville Herald:
    Contrary to some news reports, Border Patrol Spokeswoman Rosalinda Huey said the Border Patrol agents did not report hearing shots.

    "At no times did agents hear any shots fired, and they did not fire any shots," she said.

  12. Look, don't jump to conclusions every time a media report is made or changed - the initial stories are often filled with incorrect or conflicting information and then "fleshed out" as the day goes on.

    Right now, the CBP says no shots fired contrary to earlier media reports.

    There is not really any need to sanitize this issue, so my guess is someone got a little excited and jumped the gun on their story.

    So, don't send in the bombers yet : )

  14. This is odd. I live in La Galaxia which is right behind Flor De Mayo and around 11 AM, I stepped out of my house and I could have SWORN I heard gunshots, but I shrugged it off as either house construction or just random noises.
