The Border Patrol issued an internal warning to agents stationed in South Texas that they may be the targets of assassination attempts by Mexican cartel members.
Border Patrol’s Rio Grande Valley region sent personnel an alert this week, obtained by the Washington Examiner, disclosing that its operations center had received information about possible cartel violence against U.S. law enforcement near Fronton, Texas, a tiny town of 200 residents about 50 miles west of McAllen, Texas.
