Do you realize here are the type of criminals entering America illegally? Five bodies found in desert;?
In the shooting, a wounded man came across U.S. Border Patrol agents about 20 miles north of the Mexican border near Interstate 19 about midnight Sunday, said Santa Cruz County Sheriff Antonio Estrada.
Deputies were called, Estrada said, and the man told investigators that he and 10 other people had crossed into Arizona at Sasabe about three days earlier. As they walked through the desert Sunday night, two armed men wearing dark clothing approached them and, without saying a word, opened fire on the group, hitting the man twice.
He said he dived for cover and hid while the other people in his group scattered, Estrada said.
The man said he and the other group members were to meet someone in Amado who would drive them farther into the United States.
However, Estrada said, "We have strong suspicion he (the wounded man) was part of a group that was backpacking marijuana." Estrada did not say whether the shooting was part of a drug theft.
The wounded man is a 34-year old from Los Mochis, Sinaloa, Estrada said, adding he was in stable condition at a hospital.
By late Monday morning, Estrada said, none of the other group members had been found.
Here are accounts of the five bodies found during the weekend:
● On Saturday morning, the owner of the Atascosa Ranch, near I-19 and about 13 miles north of the border, found the body of a man suspected to be an illegal immigrant on the ranch's land, Estrada said. On Friday at about 7:15 p.m., a Border Patrol agent patrolling about five miles east of Lukeville in the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument found the body of a 43-year-old suspected illegal immigrant. The man was found within a few yards of the Mexican border, said Border Patrol Agent Sean King.
● About noon Saturday a Border Patrol agent found the skeletal remains of a person about 13 miles east of Arivaca, King said. The agent could not tell the approximate age or the gender of the person.
● And, about noon Sunday a National Guard crew on patrol in a helicopter about 18 miles north of Lukeville spotted two decomposing bodies in the desert, King said. Neither of the two male bodies had identification, he said.
The five bodies bring to 143 the number of suspected illegal entrants found dead in the southern Arizona desert since Oct. 1, the beginning of the federal fiscal year, according to Border Patrol and Tucson Citizen records.
