Tancredo Outraged at Another Mexican Border Incursion U.S. Border Patrol Agent Details Mexican Military Incursion Outside Ajo, Arizona WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Representative Tom Tancredo (R-CO) today announced that he has learned of another incursion along the U.S. Mexico border near Ajo, Arizona. According to a U.S. Border Patrol Agent, the Tohono O’odham Police Department encountered a Mexican military incursion on Friday, May 17, 2002 at approximately 8:30PM along the Santa Cruz trail inside the Papago Farms border patrol area, just south of Forest Road 21. "I cannot in good conscience stand by and watch another incursion along our border take place," said Tancredo. "Unless we open our eyes and recognize that what’s happening along the U.S. Mexico border is real, one of our guys is going to get killed. "Everyone keeps claiming that these "incursions" don’t take place, that people are just getting lost, and the whole idea of incursions is erroneous. Unless the U.S. and Mexican government admits these incursions exist and take action to stop them, then an international incident, in my opinion, is foreseeable," concluded Tancredo. The U.S. Border Patrol Agent, who wishes to remain anonymous, informed Rep. Tancredo during a phone conversation that approximately five miles north of the U.S./Mexico border, one the "GS-11" agents out of the Ajo border patrol station noticed a military helicopter flying overhead, heading south towards Mexico. Shortly thereafter, he came upon a humvee, which not only began to approach him, but to fire upon his vehicle. According to the agent’s testimony, the vehicles rear window and back driver’s side windows were destroyed. Fortunately, the agent was able to flee the incursion unharmed and concluded the conversation by stating, "As far as I am concerned, that [incursion] should be an act of war." On May 3, 2002, Rep. Tancredo issued a letter to Mexican President Vicente Fox to reveal the "incursions" made by members of the Mexican Army and law enforcement agencies onto American soil. Rep. Tancredo never received a response from President Fox
