A few more details.The young man shot in the lung is from the Winston N.M. area.His fiance was with him and one of the other women is a nurse.She did first aid while waiting for rescue.They stood guard with ARs waiting for help.Still no word on condition.Prayers!

When are we going to take back control of our country.Build the wall and patrol with armed Blackhawks!

Update: The young man shot at Presidio has been air lifted to El Paso and had emergency surgery.Is in intensive care at this time.Condition unknown.The story is that the Border Patrol was making a sweep and picked up about four drug smugglers.They may have thought these hunters were working with the border patrol.After their cabin was robbed they broke out their spotting scopes and located the thieves.They called in the Border Patrol and they recovered the stolen property.That night they were ambushed.The first victim was shot as he walked out of the cabin and the second was shot as he ran out to check on victim #1.Prayers for All!

Presidio newspaper has posted a story.http://www.kxxv.com/story/34208344/two-injured-in-shooting-at-ranch-in-presidio-county-friday-night I wish I knew how to get Fox News on this story.Really tragic that a family can not enjoy a vacation in South Tx. anymore.Have not heard how Walker is today.I did not want to post his name until it became public.Good young man who had just got married.

Such an incredible and heart breaking story. My prayers go out to the victims and their families and God's mercy on the young man whose life is in jeopardy.

Thank you for posting as we extend our prayers for all involved frown

Clarification on your post this happened in West Texas south of El Paso by the town of Candelaria which borders the Rio Grande, not South Texas.

Surely with the brain trust here on TFF someone knows how to get the national press to pick up this story.West Texas is not safe and I do not know how the poor ranchers can continue to fight this war alone!

our politicians are worried about folks in the middle east that have been fighting over nothing since biblical times and they cant keep our citizens along the southern border an Chicago safe what a great deal we have hopefully this will change soon.
