One man was killed following a struggle with a Border Patrol agent, the Starr County Sheriff’s Office said.

On Wednesday, CBP issued an incident report detailing what they said led to the shooting. 

According to the report, Border Patrol agents in the area “observed several individuals walking north in camouflage clothing.” The agents later approached the group, causing many of them to flee back to Mexico.

A Border Patrol agent attempted to apprehend one male individual, later identified as the 31-year-old man from Mexico who died in the shooting.

“The agent transmitted via radio that he was in a fight and needed help,” the report states. “The agent reported he was engaged in an active struggle with the man for two minutes and ultimately discharged his CBP-issued firearm. The man sustained a total of three gunshot wounds.”

The unidentified Mexican man was hospitalized and pronounced dead later that evening. 

According to the report, an autopsy was conducted and findings will be reported to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Office of Professional Responsibility upon completion of the report.??

The investigation into the shooting is ongoing.
