Nuevo Progreso is typically seen as a safe border town compared to others such as Tijuana and Ciudad Juarez. Many tourists were shaken up by the shooting in Nuevo Progreso Mexico on Saturday. Some visitors mistook the gunshots for firecrackers but found out the sobering truth when they saw people with blood on their clothes in the streets.

A truck with Texas license plates is the center of the investigation as the only occupant of the truck has been killed. There is no word yet on whether the occupant is an American citizen or Mexican citizen. The Nuevo Progreso shooting comes about after recent Mexican drug cartel violence have scared residents of many Mexican border towns.

The L.A. county fire department is using helicopters and fire engines to contain and put the Anaheim Hills fire out.

The fire currently lies on the eastern side of the tollway where the fire department hopes to keep it contained as the western side of the tollway is filled with housing developments. The Anaheim Hills Fire has burned at least 25 acres so far.

Although the nearest residents are miles away, officials have warned them to have an escape route ready. Lack of water may also be an issue for the fire fighters as they truck in water from neighboring cities.

Police investigating the murder did not know Zoelina Williams had a son until family members notified them Saturday morning, November 14.

38 year old Curtis Martin has been arrested in the murder case but police won’t say if he has given them any clues as to where the Jashon Williams might be. It is suspected that Curtis Martin was driving Zoelina Williams from Oakland to Vallejo when something terrible went wrong that caused him to murder Zoelina and dump her at a Berkeley Aquatic Park.

Police and divers are searching the pools in the water park for Jashon Williams. Three dogs are being used in the search. Police would not comment on where else they might be searching.

This is not Curtis James’ first run in the law. He previously pleaded no contest to manslaughter in the death of 3 year old Devin Brewer in 1994. James was sentenced to 11 years in prison and served 6.

Nearby ships replied to distress signals from the ship and were able to rescue 17 people. Search and rescue teams are still attempting to locate the other survivors.

Australian officials have said the boat was much too small to carry 40 people, and was likely a group of asylum seekers from the middle east.

Human Trafficking activity from areas such as Iraq and Afghanistan have been on the rise this year, with nearly 2000 refugees arriving on Australia shores aboard rogue crafts.

In an announcement made earlier this evening, the Sheriff’s office has decided to preserve the integrity of the case they are building by not releasing Somer’s cause of death to the public.

Sommer disappeared on Monday on her way home from school after an argument with her siblings. Her body was found Wednesday in a Georgia Landfill.

This story is a reminder to keep a close eye on your children and make sure they never leave the group. It is likely whoever murdered Somer had been watching her actives after school, and recognized the opportunity to kidnap her when she was alone.
