A friend of mine lives seven blocks from that police station and said that he heard the grenade go off and some small arms fire afterwards.

Growing up in Pharr, trips to Reynosa were always fun whether going to the market, or to eat at the US Bar, or to Trevinos or even to watch a baseball game with the Reynosa Broncos. Now I would not even think about going there.
