This is in the current issue of the Gringo Gazette
"Letters to Editor
Toll Road Carjacking Near San Marino
Hello,
Friday August 22, my husband was driving on the Toll Road towards San Diego from Rosarito in our Lincoln Navigator. A big sedan, with police lights,
red and blue, mounted on the rear-view mirror, with flashing headlights, followed him and stopped him at San Marino. Since my husband was driving a
little over the speed limit, he thought that the Federal Police were going to give him a citation. As soon as he stopped, another car pulled up in
front of the Navigator impeding his escape.
Two men who were riding in the small car, not in uniform, shoved a 32 caliber, semi automatic gun at my husband's face, at the same time that the
individuals in the vehicle behind ours got out of their car. There were about 4 or 5 of them in that vehicle and they were not uniformed either.
They dragged my husband out of the Navigator, hit him, threw him in the back seat on the floor, and stole all of his possessions. One of the men
started driving the Navigator. They stopped about 5 miles later, on the shoulder close to Real del Mar, where they threw him out of the car
violently. We are very thankful to God that these men didn't shoot or kill my husband.
We are now mired in calling insurance companies, banks, cell phone companies, etc. to report the theft, and will start the long road to all the
governmental offices: the two Ministerios Públicos, Municipal Police, Fiscal Police, Federal Police, and California Highway Patrol for we had
California plates.
I've had the pleasure of meeting our new Municipal President, Mr. Hugo Torres, and I would like to notify him of this outrage via this media, and ask
him that something be done to avoid these scary thefts during his Administration.
Thank you,
V.A.R. and S.S."
