Mexican Army Members Busted for Home Invasion and Murder – in Phoenix?
Police documents show that at least one of the suspects involved in a home invasion and homicide were active members of the Mexican Army.
A top member of a Phoenix police union is standing by reports that at least one of the men involved in a Monday morning home invasion and homicide was an active member in the Mexican Army.
“Even if you put aside the Mexican military, you have illegals in the country…they’re protected with tactical gear using tactical strategies in police uniforms willing to ambush police officers. I think that’s bad enough,” said Mark Spencer, President of the Phoenix Police Enforcement Association.
While on the J.D. Hayworth show Tuesday, Mark Spencer announced that the suspects were hired by drug cartels to perform home invasions and murders.
The incident at 8329 W. Cypress St. resulted in the death of the homeowner. Between 50 and 100 rounds were fired at the house.
Spencer said a police officer told him that one of the men captured said they were completely prepared to ambush Phoenix police, but ran out of ammunition.
He added that all were all dressed in military tactical gear and were armed with AR-15 assault rifles. Three other men involved in the invasion escaped.
However, Phoenix Police have not confirmed the men were Mexican Army members.
Sgt. Joel Tranter said one suspect revealed that he had “prior military training,” but “no credible evidence” that any of them were active in the military.
I live 12 miles from the border and you are discovering something we’ve always known. I haven’t gone unarmed near the border for 30 years. I carry either a SOCOM16 or an M-4 in the car all the time and my HK P2K loaded on me.
Do not quote me on these numbers… I am pulling them from dark recesses of experience and SWAG; but, I think the percap homicide rate in LA is around 12 per 100K?
The address where this happened is listed by the DEA in the National Clandestine Laboratory Register for the State of Arizona… Perhaps some elements inside the Mexican authorities were evening a score with one of the cartels that are seeking refuge on this side of the border…
Today, FOX News reported it was 4 “Former” Mexican soldiers, dressed in combat assault gear, 2 of whom were caught, trying to hit a drug dealer tied to a Mexican cartel.
