Teens Suspected In Dog Torture Case
Three unidentified teenagers, believed to be residents of Kensington Manor Trailer Park, attacked a female Chihuahua with a knife, nearly skinning it alive. Witness Catherine Tibbs found the injured dog and rushed it to Dr. Alfred Bernkrant, who performed over 200 stitches in a two and a half hour operation. The vet said the act was unprecedented in his 30 years and the dog faces a long recovery if shock and infection are managed. The incident spurred reports of other animal mutilations in the same trailer park.

Gun runners exploit lax border checks to ship weapons to Mexico
UPI reports federal officials warn arms ranging from handguns to machineguns cross the border despite limited inspections. DEA chief Bill Kline says the trade fuels narcotics and terrorism, with guns sold in Mexico or used by traffickers and groups like the 23rd of September movement and the Vikings. Rep. Bob Wilson notes cases of guns traced to U.S. military facilities, including National Guard armories burglarized. Texas agents cite 34 weapons exchanged for narcotics in Mexico amid border laxity. El Norte notes two Texas activists were arrested for incitement and arms smuggling, linked to a San Antonio restaurant owner.
