Mexico Arests 4 Gunmen

Mexico arrested 4 gunmen after battles near the Arizona border. They had killed 22 people. The 4 men were members of a criminal assault force that overran a town near the Arizona border and set off fighting that left at least 22 dead in violence linked to drug cartels. Helicopters combed the whole area looking for a few more as they estimated there were 50 gunmen who assaulted a nearby town of Cananea, only 30 miles south of the U.S. border. Good job done!

Gunmen Seize Four U.S, Oil Workers

In Lagos, Nigeria, gunmen seized four american workers in Nigeria's southern oil regions. Wednesday, an Italian oil company said crude production has been cut by nearly 100,000 barrels a day by the worst bombing to hit the petroleum industry in months. Demanding greater control over oil in the region, militants have stepped up attacks in recent weeks in Africa's biggest oil producer. Chevron said the four were sub-contractors with U. S. citizenship. Let us pray they get out of there safely with their lives.
