Members of a militia that has held hundreds of migrants at the US-Mexico border are expected to leave their camp near Sunland Park, New Mexico, police say
The United Constitutional Patriots group has been camped on the land, which is adjacent to property owned by Union Pacific Railroad, for about two months, according to Sunland Park Police Chief Javier Guerra.On Monday, the city of Sunland Park placed"no trespassing" signs near the camp. Union Pacific Railroad has also put up"no trespassing" signs, and asked the militia members not to trespass on railroad property to access the camp.
Hopkins was prohibited from possessing firearms or ammunition because he had been convicted of at least three felonies, including criminal impersonation of a peace officer in Oregon in 2006, according to the criminal complaint."I think after the detention of Mr. Hopkins discouraged them," Guerra said."That's what they said today. They're just going to pack up and go home.
