LATEST STORIES FROM ABC15's JAVIER SOTO:
DOUGLAS, AZ — The Douglas Port of Entry is one of the busiest ports of entry in Arizona. It's also one of the busiest drug trafficking routes. Still, every year tens of thousands of commercial trucks, more than a million vehicles and hundreds of thousands of people pass through the inspection station."I was naturalized 15 years ago and I've been working here in Douglas for the last 14 years," said Guerrero.
The port of entry is a lifeline for the two sister cities, and it's especially crucial to the Douglas economy which benefits from the traffic coming in from across the border. However, not everyone is as happy about their cross-border counterparts. Mom Placida Delgado says she's struggling to find a job.
