[Breitbart] A Mexican migrant assaulted a Tucson Sector Border Patrol agent after illegally crossing the border from Mexico on December 19. The agent had to be taken to a hospital for injuries sustained after being struck in the head with a rock.
A Brian A. Terry Station Border Patrol agent received a call to assist with suspected illegal activity near a residence south of Bisbee, Arizona. As the agent attempted to arrest the subject, the migrant resisted and began fighting with the agent. During the fight, the migrant allegedly struck the agent in the head with a rock and escaped, according to information obtained by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials.
Other agents and an Air and Marine Operations aircrew joined in a search for the absconded migrant. Using night-vision technology, the agents found the man and quickly placed him in custody, officials stated. |
