| SADM Looking North |
Just moments ago on his walk with Paris, Mike ran into Reuban and was told that a couple of hours ago (that would be around 3:00pm ), one of the Guards of SADM was shot. Unknown at this moment if he survived the shooting or has died. This Guard was apparently the Chief Guard, unknown what his relationship is/was with the Tijuana Municipal Police.
Here is what Reuban told Mike:
The guard was investigating a vehicle (Jeep) which had pulled off the Scenic Highway between the North and South entrances to SADM (closer to the South entrance). The driver of the Jeep pulled off the shoulder onto the flat open stretch in front of the wall and the first row of houses.
The guard went to investigate and upon approaching the vehicle, was shot in the chest.
@6:11pm: Mike called Reuban re status of the guard. According to Reuban the guard is alive but in critical condition at Hospital.
This is bad...more details coming up as we get them .
Thanks Reuban & Carmen

UPDATES/EDIT 02/15/2020:
This morning, Mike spoke with both Pete & Reuban who told him the guard died in the Hospital.
Still, no mention of the guard, the Scenic Highway or of SADM in the news sources; just like the old days. We all know why there is no mention - due to tourism and real estate concerns. Same as we never hear anymore about the contaminated ocean and beaches right in front of us which none of us can enjoy or the vile lingering smell of raw sewage being dumped from behind us from Tijuana flowing down our barranca onto the beach and into the sea (last dump was roughly two weeks ago in the early predawn hours.)
There is no way in the world I will ever disbelieve Pete or Reuban, these are the best and most honest guys in the world . What we are also learning is that the guard was an "Auxiliary Officer" of the Tijuana Municipal Police Department. Welcome to Mexico.
These reports came in overnight and earlier this morning:
~ From El Sol de Tijuana:
Notice they say a man, not the guard or his name, nor where he was shot:
