Mexican Drug Lords Plotted to Attack Texas Dam

Posted by Ryan Mauro On June - 4 - 2010

Well, maybe this will make the U.S. pay attention to the war in Mexico (yes, we can call it that). One drug cartel planned to bomb a dam on the border with Texas in order to hurt a rival drug gang that has routes in the area. Even though the target wasn’t the civilian population, such an attack still would have been a disaster if successful.

The authorities say they would have needed a tractor-trailer full of dynamite to pull it off, and only “small amounts of dynamite” were found near the target.
