I think that's what they call the drag strip that goes along the border fence as you approach the San Ysidro gate.

Yah, IH (International Highway)? Then he used the Spanish word for firefighters... so I guess this is in Mexico... Maybe the section of 1-D that goes
from the border to Playas de Tijuana?
I am not well versed in stuff around cities... get me out of town where I can use my four wheel drive!

Bomberos and Bombarderos two distinct words. I hope I never run into the second of the two names unless I have an arma de fuego!

Guess it's pretty clear I can mispell as well in Spanish and I can in English. Mexican side from the top top of the hill west heading east to San
Ysidro border crossing. Near the near the fire station. I counted at least 10 units on both sides of the IH and many were trucks with people
aprrended in the back. I have searched the papers and other boards to no avail. They were also picking up some of the beggars near the left hand
turn onto the border entrance. Just wondered if anyone else was in the area or could shed some light on these events.
Maybe I dreamed the whole thing up?

Here's a Google translation of the above link:
-----------------------------
Hijackers and "kill" police "detainees
Written by AFN on February 22, 2010 in Narcotrafico
*.- Apparently are eight captured, of which four have higher charges
*.- The authorities have "busted" at least four strategic locations
*.- These individuals had "standard" military
11:30 am .- TIJUANA BC 22 FEBRUARY 2010 (AFN) .- The individuals who were apprehended over the weekend in Tijuana, are among the most dangerous hitmen
group Raydel Lopez Uriarte, aka "The Crutches" which not only were engaged in kidnapping and robbery with violence, but also are the authors of
several of the bloodiest executions, including several policemen.
In Information gathered by Border Agency news Tijuana, there are now at least eight detainees, of which four are most important for having been
"placed" key of the criminal organization, to whom they were seized several weapons.
Even AFN also was informed that due to information obtained by the authorities, have "busted", it is said, four sites considered by the Mafia as
"bedrooms" because they are sites that are hidden killers and drug dealers and also the have guarded their weapons and other implements used.
Among those arrested confirmed the arrest of an individual nicknamed "El Popeye", which has been identified as Oscar Gabriel Renteria, in turn closely
linked to Filiberto Parra Ramos, aka The b-tch and became the successor of the Kaibil Angel Jacome Gamboa, held at a 15th birthday party in March
2009.
Others arrested as AFN would be entrusted by their nicknames, "The Panther, El Pelon, El Borracho and length, which are interrogated by the
authorities to continue working on this case.
Likewise, it turned out that these criminals for their crimes, including using military garb with which to disguise their movements around the city.
The detainees now, trying to survive when faced with economic problems, they resorted to violent assaults in stores. So far no official information
has emerged from these operations conducted by the municipal police with the support of the Mexican Army.
A blow to the group of "Crutches"
*.- Detain at least four of his "men"
20:50 hours .- TIJUANA BC February 21, 2010 (AFN) .- At least three or four individuals to be part of the criminal cells Raydel Lopez Uriarte, aka
"The Crutches" were apprehended last Saturday in an operation that so far has not transpired.
Border News Agency has learned that local elements, supported by Mexican Army troops, conducted a successful operation, although at present it was
difficult to obtain information on the site where it would have recorded this arrest, like the names of those involved.
Among some "sources" ran the story that one of the detainees would nicknamed "Popeye", although it is not Sebastian Gonzalez Vargas, who made his name
with the same alias, since he was arrested after he along with another individual caught fire with municipal police in Cuesta Blanca, in October 2009.
The military-police raid has been maintained with much secrecy, although it warned it was "a good hit" to the criminal organization in this city had
"The Crutches", arrested in recent weeks in La Paz BCS.
Is expected in the coming hours as the army that would reveal details regarding this matter.
From the apprehensions of Teodoro Eduardo Garcia Simental, known as El Teo; of Raydel Lopez Uriarte, The Crutches and Manuel Garcia Simental, known as
the kid, the authorities have gathered valuable information that enabled them to "break" several houses were controlled by these criminals .
