Sheriff going to Mesa, tells illegals to get out of town

by KTAR Newsroom

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio still isn’t saying when he will take his crime suppression patrols to Mesa.

He says there’s a reason for the delay — he’s giving illegal immigrants a chance to get out of town.

“I’m giving them a chance to pack up and leave, so when I do go in there, there may not be a big problem,” he said.

If an illegal immigrant needs a ride, Arpaio says, “Call 602-876-1000 and we’ll make arrangements. Maybe we’ll even pick them up.”
