MEXICAN SOLDIERS CLEAR THE ROAD ON THE CENTRAL STATES OF HIDALGO.
Mexican soldier clear the road in Hidalgo on May 29, 2002, where
authorities found 70 barrels of deadly sodium cyanide, part of a large
shipment that was stolen from a truck earlier this month and set off
fears it could be used by terrorists. U.S. customs officials issued a
series of alerts about the stolen truck on the U.S-Mexico border and
scrutinized vehicles for the cyanide, with concerns it could be put
into water supplies or otherwise used in a terrorist attack.
