But as the project neared, opposition from residents intensified. They hated the idea of having to pay variable tolls to a private company for 50 years.

Fugitive task forces are collaborations between agencies to find and arrest suspects in crimes. The neighborhood, of one– and two-story, brick homes and small trimmed lawns, is very safe, said Alex Rivera, who lives on a street nearby. One other member of the task force, which is made up of federal agents and other officers from across the region was injured.
