If you want to really know what’s happening in Mexico, don’t read the mainstream They’re in the pockets of the drug lords. The only place to get current news is from a single, anonymous blog site, called Blog Del Narco.
The blog has some gruesome photos on it, so be forewarned. There’s several discussions on reddit about the blog and what it’s really like living in Mexico right now.
JT Ready and a group of armed men are planning on taking Arizona’s border battle into their own hands.
“We’re going to go all night and shut down the drug corridor that comes directly into Phoenix,” Ready said. “We have guys that are going to be doing some covert stuff and we have some snipers coming out.”
Oh yeah, this is going to end well.
I can’t tell this one better, so here’s the text from WBNS 10TV in Columbus, Ohio.
A man who was carjacked outside a south side restaurant said his friends helped him come up with a plan to outsmart the thieves, 10TV News reported Thursday.
Alan Heuss was sitting in his BMW on Wednesday night with the engine running when a man with a gun approached him, 10TV’s Kurt Ludlow reported.
“Some young man came up and opened the passenger door and stuck a gun in my face and told me to get out,” Heuss said.
The thieves got away with Heuss’ car, cell phone and some cash.
Heuss filed a police report and then met his friends to drown his sorrows, Ludlow reported. One of his friends came up with an idea to contact the thieves.
“He said ‘I’m going to text these guys, I’m going to blow some smoke their way,’” Heuss said. “He said. ‘I’m going to tell them I’ve got a bunch of hot chicks, as if I’m texting you, and that we’ve got some drugs, too.’”
The carjackers took the bait, Ludlow reported.
“Very early in the morning they gave him the address where they were,” Heuss said. “They were expecting this hot chick to arrive with drugs, and Columbus police officers arrived instead.”
Three men were caught red-handed in the stolen vehicle. Heuss said he expected to get his vehicle out of the impound lot on Friday.
“It’s a little seven-hour saga where the good guys won,” Heuss said.
Investigators said the carjackers are suspected in a series of car thefts.
