“We’re having to work around them”

Report from The Arizona Daily Star:

In the first few days of the Minuteman Project, volunteers have been slowing illegal immigration into the Naco area. They’ve accomplished that with the help of an unlikely ally: Mexico.

Eager to avoid confrontations between volunteers and its people, Mexico is sweeping the area south of the Minuteman Project clear of migrants. …

What Minuteman volunteers have succeeded in doing is setting off false alarms by tripping ground sensors on the border, [Border Patrol spokesman Andy Adame] said.

“We’re having to work around them instead of concentrating on the actual border where we need to work,” Adame said.
