Border Crisis: Did Mexican Soldiers Point Guns at US Officials?

While we have recently heard that NPR has found that the Mexican Army maybe supporting one side over another in the country’s showdown between drug cartels, now comes word that Mexican soldiers may have pointed guns at American law enforcement. The Dallas Morning News reported:

“Mexican security forces pointed their rifles toward U.S. authorities investigating the shooting of a 15-year-old Mexican by a U.S. Border Patrol agent on the banks of the Rio Grande, the FBI and witnesses said Wednesday.”

We’ll be watching this story as it unfolds, especially to see if Mexican President Calderon offers any commentary.
