AMADO, AZ (KOLD) - Several volunteers spent the weekend cleaning up trash left behind by illegal border crossers near Amado. In all, they picked up ten tons of garbage, debris, and personal belongings scattered in the desert.

The border ranch clean-up was organized by Hunters Who Care, a group of hunters, guides, sportsmen, hunting clubs and various other groups engaged in desert clean-up and restoration in support of landowners near the border.

After two days of filling bags and bags of trash, volunteers say they collected a total of ten tons of garbage.
