McCain: Mexico violence could spill into Arizona

PHOENIX (AP) - Citing the killing of 72 migrants in northern Mexico, Senator John McCain says he's worried that border-region violence will spill into Arizona.
The Arizona Republican said the level of violence in Mexico is, in his words, "incredible. It is out of control and it will sooner or later spill to our side of the border unless we get the border secure."
McCain commented Thursday to hundreds of municipal officials attending the annual meeting of the League of Arizona Cities and Towns. He later told reporters that the activities of crime syndicates and smuggling cartels are a concern.
McCain on Tuesday won the Republican primary election. He'll face Democrat Rodney Glassman in the Nov. 2 general election.
