TIJUANA, BC - "What happened did not have to occur", said Alfredo Escobedo Ortiz, State Civil Protection Director, in reference to the collapse that killed three members of a family in the colony on May 10. He explained that once again a slope cut without advice ended in tragedy, this time ending the life of a father and his two sons. In Tijuana, there are about 20 areas in danger of sliding.
