Sheriff Displays Photos, Says Mexican Official Captured In US

KFOX first reported on Wednesday night that Hudspeth County Sheriff Arvin West said his deputies caught a Mexican customs officer driving around one of the county roads at 9 p.m. last Sunday night.
"His official documentation saying that he is an officer. We called his comandante in Juarez that night, and the comandante verified that he was actually a Mexico customs officer. He didn't know why he was on the American side obviously, but he did verify," West said.
West said he has pictures that show the man's uniform and the SUV he was driving, without any license plates.
The officer allegedly told deputies that he was driving to work, which is at the Mexican port of entry across from Fort Hancock.
But, West said he researched the man's U.S. border crossing card and it showed he crossed two days earlier.
"It only takes forty-five minutes to an hour, that's all that it should have taken for him. It doesn't take two days from the free bridge in El Paso, Texas, to Esperanza overpass. You could walk it in less than a day," West said.
But, what disturbed West the most, is that he said officials found a Global Positioning System inside the officer's car.
"I believe that he was verifying the modes of travel for narcotics to be coming in the United States. He was approximately 12 to 15 miles from the road going into the border to get to the crossing," West said.
