said.

Sauceda, 29, to 40 months in federal prison for conspiring to  
unlawfully export weapons into Mexico.
Sauceda pleaded guilty to the federal felony on Feb. 8, admitting he  
planned on exporting 10 semi-automatic rifles, 87 magazines and 1,570  
rounds of ammunition without a license.

during a southbound inspection at the Hidalgo-Reynosa International  
Bridge.

supervised release and will be unable to possess a firearm or  
ammunition.

The state of Sonora is a safe institution, said Tucson Mayor Bob  
Walkup, to make an invitation to Americans to take the different  
resorts as a resting and showing disregard to warnings that his  
government has issued
Said he and his family have many years of traveling to Mexico,  
especially, to Sonora, where he "never had a bad experience, but on  
the contrary, each time confirming the quality of care and services  
offered here," he added .
"I have a lot of years traveling around the world, besides I have  
plenty of experience as a military and Sonora truth is that I have  
never seen a situation of risk or insecurity, for that reason, I want  
to invite the citizens of Arizona to visit this state, to come to  
Puerto Penasco, our access to the sea, our Riviera "he said.
At a press conference accompanied by Governor Guillermo Padres,  
Walkup said he was willing to serve as ambassador of Sonora to carry  
a positive message to U.S. citizens to visit tourist destinations and  
not be swayed by warnings prohibitive.
As mayor of one of the largest cities in the United States, Bob  
Walkup stressed the importance of promoting good relations between  
Sonora and Mexico adding to trade at this point of the border.
It is necessary, he said, give more importance to the Mexican  
consumer, because now according to a survey of dealers in Tucson, 36%  
of their revenues depend on Mexican consumers, reflecting a clear  
message to preserve the bond between the two nations.
"It should work in both directions, but also promote secure borders,  
free borders," he concluded.
