Armed Migrants in Caravan Opened Fire on Mexican Cops, Say Authorities

Mexican authorities arrested two Hondurans who allegedly shot at federal police officers escorting the migrant caravan across the southern state of Chiapas. The attack follows shortly after government warnings about Molotov cocktail attacks around a second caravan near the border with Guatemala.

The attack took place near Ignacio Zaragoza, Chiapas, when members of Mexico’s Federal Police were escorting the migrant caravan as part of “Operativo Caminante” or “Operation Walker” across the southern border state. According to Mexico’s Interior Secretariat, two men identified only as 22-year-old “Jerson” and 17-year-old “Carlos” spotted the group of police officers guarding the caravan and began firing at them.

The attackers’ pistol jammed, allowing police officers to arrest them without any injuries. Federal authorities seized a .380 caliber Glock with nine rounds still in the magazine.

I hope Democrats aren't providing them with weapons.

There are more in this caravan than families wishing to seek asylum in the US. Anyone not willing to obey our laws should not be permitted to enter and become a citizen. Period. Besides the news media being biased toward the Left, allowing foreign extremists into our society is partly the cause of all the conflict we see today. When will the liberal base wake up. They were against this ten years ago. And now they have gone extreme. Polls mean nothing as we saw in the last presidential election. Get out and vote!!!
