The U.S. Marine who mistakenly crossed into Mexico with guns registered in the U.S. told Fox News Channel's Greta Van Susteren that authorities south of the border showed no interest in hearing his story before they locked him up two months ago.

In an exclusive interview from a federal prison in Tecate, Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi, who served two tours of duty in Afghanistan, told the “On the Record” host he tried to explain that he had taken a wrong turn and was unable to avoid crossing at the San Ysidro checkpoint on the night of March 31.
“[A Mexican border guard] got on the walkie-talkie and was communicating what was going on,” Tahmooressi said. “I think what he said was, 'Hey we've got a guy down here with three guns.'”
That message brought a Mexican Marine to the scene.
