One man is now recovering in a San Diego hospital after he was shot in Tijuana early Wednesday morning.

It happened around 2:00 a.m. The victim was trying to cross into the U.S. at the San Ysidro border crossing.

He is said to be a U.S. citizen who was living in Tijuana and apparently was shot during a home invasion.

He was taken to UCSD and is expected to survive.

Man, if a couple like this isn't safe in Rosarito, who is?

No good deed goes unpunished............but I guess this is all part of God's plan. :rolleyes:

Love that line from the signon story.


Quote:

It was not clear why he sought treatment in the United States rather than closer to his Mexican home.


Yeah, what a mystery........

San Diego police and U.S. customs officials were investigating.

Well, at least he's lived there long enough to know which police force NOT to contact.
