THE BORDER REPORT

Ahh, Rocky Point, with your pristine blue waters, gorgeous sunsets, tourists running around with cadavers ...
What in the world gets into people?
High on crack cocaine, a Phoenix man was popped early Thursday morning in Rocky Point for driving erratically. When police stopped him, they found a body wrapped up in a white comforter.
Meet Ryan John Chronis, now sitting in a Sonoran prison as he's questioned by the U.S. Consulate on a murder charge.
It seems Chronis was picked up by Sonora state police 2 a.m. Thursday morning, driving around and around the streets of Rocky Point with the body in his 2005 GMC van.
He told police he stabbed his girlfriend, Nicole Wood, in the neck with a kitchen knife, sometime early Wednesday.
The crack must have told him it'd be a good idea to head two hours south into Mexico. He told police he was looking for a safe place to dump the body.
It leaves a few questions unanswered about security at the ports when you can wander into Mexico with a body but God knows south-bound traffic is rarely stopped unless it's Christmas and Customs and Border Protection are looking for cash smugglers. As for Mexican Customs, they told Sonoran police Chronis must have hit the greenlight.
The 24-year-old will likely be returned to Phoenix to face murder charges.
