A suspect was shot and killed after an attempt to hit a border agent, according to officials.
NOGALES, AZ — A U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officer shot and wounded a 21-year-old U.S. citizen who was trying to enter Mexico at a crossing in Arizona, the agency said Saturday morning.
According to a statement from CBP, around 7 p.m. on February 7, a team of officers had been informed that "an older model, tan-colored Ford pick-up truck, with a license plate registered to a different vehicle, [was] attempting to exit the United States with two male occupants."
Officers approached the truck and attempted to question the driver, but the driver accelerated the truck and drove into Mexico.
A CBP officer fired his weapon at the vehicle, striking the 21-year-old male driver. The passenger of the vehicle was unharmed.
The truck crossed a few yards into Mexico before the driver of the truck hit a cement barrier, according to CBP's statement.
The CBP statement said the driver of the truck sustained a gunshot wound and was taken to a hospital in Nogales, Sonora, Mexico for treatment.
The driver has since been transported to a hospital in Southern Arizona for additional treatment. CBP says the driver is in critical condition. His identity has not been released by CBP.
A woman who answered the phone at Garino’s office said the mayor was unavailable, and there was no more information about the shooting.
This is an ongoing investigation. The CBP's Office of Professional Responsibility and Homeland Security Investigations are involved in the investigation.
"This incident remains an open investigation, no further details are expected to be immediately released," CBP said.i am due to be evicted from my council house in 8 days due to rent arrears.
my arrears stand at 4220 but i have paid off 1700 this week. i was informed by the council that if i pay 1444.23 then the eviction would be suspended but they have gone back on this offer and now say i need to pay 3000 to stop the eviction. i have filed for suspension of the eviction and am in court on friday, i have offered the 1700 i have paid and to pay 20 pw off the arrears. what do u think the chances are of me being evicted? i have nowhere else to go and although the council have advised me they have a legal obligation to provide me with temp accomodation for 28 days, there is no way i could take my daughter to one of those places!!... please help im so scared.
Hi, sorry to hear of your dilemma, how did it go today?in response to reader comment: But why do they want to join that abomination?
The EU has open borders, which means that Muslims would be able to come into the EU and help subdue it. Someone else on here wrote that the whole Hadith reform is a ploy to get Europe to allow Turkey membership to do just that.
It could be. The Prime Minister once told his people to have more babies because Allah wills it.
I am all for changes to the Hadith, but no Turkey in the EU. Make no mistake, they have the same goals as Libya and Palestine to dominate Europe.
Yes, many Palestinians hate Israel, but Israel has already defeated all its enemies combined in war twice. Now, they have modern weapons at their disposal.
So, the attention of Islamic radicals has shifted to Europe, where, despite the formation of the EU, it is seen as considerably weaker than Israel. I dare say, you'd have an easier time fighting the Dutch than you would Israel.
They see the advantage because of the liberal tolerance of the EU. That's why you have Muslims who protest on the streets of the major cities saying things like nuke Denmark, and all gays should climb Big Ben and fall off, and why they rape women who don't wear the veil.
Israel and Palestine, once center stage, are just diversions, and so far, it's fooling everyone, even the Isrealis and Palestinians themselves. The central axis of the Islamic conflicting is shifting to Europe, because all they have to do is go there, have kids and swell the population. Normally, it wouldn't work, and they tried it with Isreal, but Orthodox Jews have a enornmous birth rate, prehaps the highest in the world.
Europe on the other hand is finally feeling the effects of its hybrid democratic-socialists soceity. Childless, barren liberal women living in condensed urban areas with their boyfriends (not married) who are more concerned with where the next beer party, orgy and pub gathering is. And all the education and stereotypical European education and attentiveness to world events? Over-hyped and diluted by false teachings of multi-culturalism and that the USA and Christianity are the cause of every problem of the world.
The EU as a secular entity won't even last a fraction of the time the Roman Empire did. It would be a miracle if half the Western democracies, Japan and the Asian tigers made it out of this century in tact, because I see a major power shift occurring.
So Turkey has plenty of reason to join. If nothing else, they can call all the shots since they are 97% Muslim, and Europeans like to give Muslims special rights.
At first, gratitude might not seem like an emotion that fits naturally or comfortably into your workday — though it should. On an individual level, gratitude is one of the most leveling qualities available to us. It extends both inward and outward: When we’re grateful for what we have — not just in material ways but for our relationships, skills, anything — our relationships with ourselves, with others, and with the world comes, Ph.D., a professor of psychology at look at how you can put it into action and make it a part of your workday routine.
Make gratitude a talking point
Workplace conversation often consists of complaints and negative comments: “I’m so tired,” “I’m so busy,” “How will I make it to Friday?” If we replace these phrases with a more positive practice — one that promotes feelings of gratitude — physical and psychological benefits can follow. Research has shown that after 10 weeks of writing about what they were grateful for, individuals were more optimistic, felt better about their lives, exercised more, and had fewer visits to the doctor compared to those who wrote down their daily frustrations. This shows that how we think, and ultimately what we say aloud and write down, has a tangible impact on how we feel. Try incorporating simple statements of gratitude every day at work, for things both big and small: “I’m so grateful that my manager showed patience with me,” or even “I’m thankful that the sun is out today.” Grateful statements can promote a positive workplace environment by replacing pessimistic small talk.
Say thank you and let others know they are appreciated
Although saying “thank you” might sound too simple to have an impact, it can actually do wonders for workplace performance. Research has also shown that employees who have managers who thank them for their work feel more motivated to work harder. Furthermore, giving compliments in the workplace, or letting others know they are appreciated can also enhance performance and social interaction. Reinforce gratitude by letting others know they matter and the work they do matters, too.
Visualize your gratitude
People “who intentionally cultivate gratitude show greater neural sensitivity in the medial prefrontal cortex, a brain region associated with learning, rational thinking and decision making,” which can be especially helpful in the workplace, Ellie Cobb, Ph.D., told NBC News. Creating visual reminders of the things you are most thankful for is a great way to cultivate gratitude throughout the day. Try writing down three things you are grateful for on your way to work, and keep the note with you in your pocket or phone case to glance at throughout the day. Keep photos of family, friends, or your pet on your desk to experience a bit of gratitude when you look up from your computer. Small visual reminders can keep a steady stream of gratitude flowing throughout your day.
Although it might be challenging to channel feelings of gratitude during a stressful workday, it is possible with a shift in intention and perspective. What’s more, you will feel more motivated to practice honest behavior and be productive, even throughout the hardest parts of your day.
