Another weapon lost in the Obama administration's failed Fast and Furious ***-tracking operation has purportedly been traced to two more killings, including the fatal shooting of a police chief in Mexico.
The officer, Luis Lucio Rosales Astorga, was ****** Jan. 29 in the city of Hostotipaquillo, which is in central-western Mexico, when gunmen intercepted his patrol car and opened fire, according to Justice Department records obtained by The Los Angeles Times. The chief’s bodyguard was also ******, a second bodyguard and the chief’s wife were wounded.
Operation Fast and Furious was run out of an *******, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives field office in Arizona. The plan was to sell guns to buyers and trace them in the black market as the crossed the U.S.-Mexico border, with the expectation they would lead federal officials to **** cartel leaders.
However, hundreds of guns were lost in the operation. And roughly 210 people have either been ****** or wounded by them, according to Mexican officials.
In addition, U.S. Border Patrol agent Brian Terry was fatally shot.
His 2010 death sparked several Capitol Hill investigations and a vote by the Republican-controlled House to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress for not turning over records.
