The El Paso Police Chief, Greg Allen keeps telling the media that "I don't think the community here in El Paso needs to worry about it because of our relationship with other agencies in El Paso itself."
The man left in charge by the late former sheriff Leo Samaniego El Paso County Sheriff, Jimmy Apodaca said "We just trust and believe that it will not come across to our side of the border. If it does we are ready.”
