BISBEE — Every month or so, on average, the U.S. Border Patrol has reported the discovery of another smuggling tunnel in Nogales over the past few years.
Meanwhile, during that same time period, it has been a rare occurrence to find a tunnel in other places along the U.S.-Mexico border in the Tucson Sector.
According to David Jimarez, a public information officer for the Border Patrol’s Tucson Sector, a total of 37 tunnels were found from Oct. 1, 2008, until today.
