75-foot tunnel found along El Paso international border
Quote:EL PASO, Texas (KFOX14) — A 75-foot tunnel was discovered south of downtown El Paso Thursday.

Chief Patrol agent Aaron Hull with Border Patrol El Paso sector said agents patrolling around a water treatment plant were notified of a makeshift tunnel north of the Sante Fe International Bridge.

Hull said agents were notified of the tunnel when employees from the Texas Department of Transportation discovered it.

TxDOT employees reported a "cave-in" that happened during construction along a roadway, according to border agents.

The tunnel was found at an El Paso Water Treatment Plant on Canal Road northwest of the Chihuahuita neighborhood.

Authorities said the tunnel is only 25 yards in length and it originates on the U.S. side of the Rio Grande. There is no indication that the tunnel goes across the river into Mexico, authorities said.

Hull says concrete is being poured to fill the tunnel and they are working with federal, state and local authorities to figure out what the tunnel was used for.

Authorities do not know how long the tunnel has been in place.

Ask the Israelis and Egyptians how to deal with tunnels.

Step one:

Steo 2: knock down the buildings they lead to and blow up the ones on the other side of the border where they start.

A properly designed wall would detect seismic activity and report it.

To concentrate the tunnels in specific areas. Bunker busters aren't cheap.

You would think with all the technology we have now there should be some kind of radar that can detect these tunnels before they are completed.
