| Dear Members Click links for full articles if not posted (Austin, Minnesota) Woman found using aliases convicted of forgery An Austin woman was convicted of one count simple felony forgery and sentenced to one year and one day at the Shakopee Minnesota Correctional Facility Monday. The prison sentence was stayed, however, and Maria Guadalupe Balderas-Lara, 32, will be serving her sentence in the form of three years of supervised probation, complete with 40 hours of community service. Balderas-Lara could face deportation for her conviction, in which case her probation would be unsupervised. Police entered the home of Balderas-Lara, who was using the aliases of Elida Sosa and Christine Marie Guzman, on Aug. 4 and found Minnesota state identification cards and social security cards under both aliases, as well as a Hormel Foods identification card under the Guzman name with Balderas-Lara's photo on it. Balderas-Lara's boyfriend, Jose Alberto Estrada-Hernandez, was also at the house during the search. Estrada-Hernandez has been using the alias of Randy Reyes Ornelas to work at Quality Pork Processing and had several fishing licenses under his Ornelas alias, which were also found in the house. The search, which was conducted at 1510 8th St. SE, also uncovered QPP identification cards in the names of Ornelas and Sosa, a Mexican Matricula card and passport belonging to Estrada-Hernandez and a Mexican birth certificate belonging to Balderas-Lara. *********************************************** Mexican Pirates Attack US Couple on Falcon Lake; Husband Missing, Feared Dead (Oct. 1) -- Mexican pirates operating on Falcon Lake, which is shared by the United States and Mexico, on Thursday shot an American tourist who had crossed the border on a Jet Ski. Tiffany Hartley, 29, said her husband, David Michael Hartley, 30, was shot in the back of the head as they tried to escape an ambush on the lake, The Associated Press reports. *************************************************** Border Patrol agents come under fire in Starr County The U.S. Border Patrol said a group of its agents came under fire from the Mexican side of the Rio Grande in Starr County on Friday. Officials said "field training units were showing agents around just south of the levee in Frontron" when they came under fire around 4 p.m. Friday. The group was conducting foot patrols when they heard noise. Agents said they started receiving gunfire from the Mexican side of the Rio Grande River. Officials told Action 4 News that at least 40 to 60 rounds of ammunition were fired at the agents. The Border Patrol agents retreated and did not fire back. No injuries were reported. **************************************************** Mexican Mayor and Aide Stoned to Death ************************************************ September 28, 2010 The Los Angeles Police Department evacuated its Rampart Area station Tuesday after an envelope containing an unknown powder was found at the station. The envelope contained a threat directed at one of the officers involved in the fatal shooting of a Guatemalan immigrant earlier this month in the Westlake District, according to sources familiar with the incident who asked not to be identified because the investigation is ongoing. The nature of the threat was not specified. **************************************************** Mexico roiled by grenades, kidnappings in bloody weekend – Sun Oct 3, 4:31 pm ET MEXICO CITY (AFP) – Northern Mexico was shaken by a weekend of violence, with 34 deaths blamed on drug cartels and a series of grenade attacks that injured a dozen people, officials said Sunday. Twelve people were hurt in a late night grenade attack at a busy plaza outside Monterrey, according to officials who said it was one of four bombings to rock the industrial border city over the weekend. Authorities said Sunday that the grenade was thrown by unidentified assailants at about 11 pm Saturday (0400 GMT Sunday) near the town hall in Guadalupe, a suburb of the bustling city near the border with the United States. Earlier Saturday, three explosive devices were detonated, including one near the US consulate and another not far from a prosecutor's office that wounded a guard. The blasts damaged roads and nearby vehicles, said police, who have yet to identify the culprits. Monterrey, about 120 kilometers (75 miles) from the US border, has been the scene of brutal violence blamed on feuding drug cartels fighting over control of trafficking routes into the lucrative US market. Last month, the US State Department barred its personnel from taking children with them when they occupy posts at the consulate in Monterrey, citing security fears. Officials in Mexico City in a statement expressed the government's "strongest condemnation" of the attacks and vowed to do their utmost to combat organized crime across the country. The bombings in Monterrey took place amid a new wave of drug related killings, mostly in northern Mexico, close to the lucrative US drug market, that has claimed nearly three dozen lives over the past few days. In the town of San Jose de la Cruz, in an isolated mountain region in the northern state of Durango, presumed rival drug gangs clashed in a bloodbath that left 14 people dead, the local prosecutor said Saturday. In Chihuahua another 20 murders took place, nine of them in Ciudad Juarez. Meanwhile, police intensified their search Sunday for 20 Mexican tourists kidnapped by gunmen last week in the beach resort city of Acapulco. The tourists from Morelia in neighboring Michoacan state were abducted late Thursday and officials said their was no word as to their whereabouts or their fate. More than 28,000 people are believed to have been killed in drug cartel-related violence in Mexico since late 2006, when President Felipe Calderon launched a military crackdown.
