Native-born Texans commit more crimes than undocumented immigrants, study finds

The Houston Chronicle reports on a study that is consistent with  wealth of studies looking at crime.  Native-born Texans are more likely to commit crimes and get arrested than immigrants, a new study suggests.

Using data from the Texas Department of Public Safety, researchers from the conservative think tank Cato Institute found the arrest rate for undocumented immigrants was 40 percent below that of native-born Texans.
