A federal agent shoots and kills intruder inside her Pinecrest home
[Miami Herald] A burglar busted through the glass doors of a house in the upscale village of Pinecrest early Monday morning, only to face a deadly barrage of bullets from the homeowner ‐ a high-ranking Miami federal agent.

Authorities said Maria Otero, the branch chief of the Miami office of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection, killed Robert Young III after he broke into her home at 1:29 a.m. It wasn’t immediately clear whether Young had a weapon, or what he used to break the window.

"We’re still combing through the house," Miami-Dade police Sgt. Carlos Rosario, a spokesman, said early Monday. "I have no information on the intruder being armed."

Otero, 55, has been in law enforcement for 25 years. After the shooting she was placed on administrative leave, which is standard practice according to CBP Spokesman Michael Silva.
