We live very far away from the border, but we have a sizable Mexican population here. Mostly, they are extremely compliant as they want to stay under the radar. Most are legal, but some are not.
But, recently, we had a significant uptick in robberies and break ins. Expected in the economic climate; but yesterday two men tried to abduct a woman from a local mini mart type store. The men were Hispanic and yelled at her in spanish but she did not understand what they were saying. They took her purse and car, but it was clear they were trying to abduct her too.
People are afraid it was a planned kidnapping. The woman is from a fairly wealthy family.
