In McAllen, yesterday afternoon, two vehicles crashed in what police say was an intentional crash. The occupants of the vehicles shot at one another, then fled.

Police arrested two brothers in their 30s a short time later. The men allegedly had firearms and several pounds of cocaine.

Another man was arrested when he showed up at a hospital.

The incident took place near the airport and close to a Mexican border crossing on US 281, FWIW.

I don't think I'd like to live down there. It seems as if a LOT of stuff is happening, all for the bad.

From the same link Jim posted from The Monitor(thanks Jim):
