Report: Gunmen Steal Radioactive Device From Mexican Research LabMac Slavo The device containingcesium-37 and americium-beryllium was housed at theNational Construction Laboratory located inTultitlan just north of Mexico City, reports Fox News Latino. The theft, which involved an unknown number of armed gunmen storming the research building, has left the Mexican government scrambling. We have the report regarding the theft of this material and the alerts and protocol we follow in these cases have already been implemented, said Government Secretary Miguel Angel Osorio Chong in an address to law enforcement officials. Mexicos federal government has distributed alerts to law enforcement officials in Mexico City and surrounding regions. Handling the material without proper safeguards or spending an extended period in close proximity to the radioactive substances could result in temporary health problems, according to the bulletin. The ones we are losing are convicted felons, aliens from special interest countries, and other high risk individuals, reports oneImmigration and Customs Enforcement agent speaking with Infowars. Though its not clear who is responsible for the armed robbery, there is a distinct possibilitythat the device could be modified into a dirty bomb and smuggledinto the United States by drug cartels or another organization. In 2010, Atlantas WSB-TV2 ran a special report about what officials call the Other Than Mexican border security threat, citing federal detention center records that show individuals from Iran, Iraq, and Afghanistan have previously attempted to enter the U.S. from Mexico. Though the Department of Homeland Security is aware of the OTM threat, the border is now as exposed as it has ever been, giving smugglers and foreign enemies a perfect opportunity to bypass the heavy security often found at international airports or the northern border with Canada. Further concerns about the possibility of a serious, and perhaps coordinated, border breach have been highlighted by YouTube channelDAHBOO7 which followed up on a Drudge Report story from earlier this week that a Nogales, Arizona power station located just miles from the border was sabotaged with a crude explosives device. The bomb which targeted the stations diesel generators failed to ignite, but had it achieved its goal experts suggest it could have taken down electrical power to the entire border region, further hampering efforts to secure the influx of migrants. It would have pretty much blown a hole in our defenses, and anyone and everyone gets through. The FBI and the Department of Homeland Security are investigating the attempted attack but have not released any information regarding suspects or motive. Mexican officials continue to search for those responsible for the theft of the radioactive device but have provided no additional information about their progress.
