EXCLUSIVE: Border Patrol Agent Shot in Tucson Sector


Sources working under the umbrella of U.S. Customs and Border Protection told Breitbart Texas that the shooting occurred between 3:30 and 4:30 Tuesday morning in the Chimney Canyon area located southeast of Aravaca.

One of the sources said the Border Patrol agent was shot in the chest and back as well as in the hand and knee, but heavy plate body armor successfully stopped the shots to the chest and back. Breitbart Texas was unable to confirm this account with officials.

Another source told Breitbart Texas that the injured Border Patrol agent is a paramedic. That source claimed the injured agent applied his own tourniquet and started his own IV. The source also claimed the injured agent was transported by an emergency medical helicopter to a hospital. Breitbart Texas was unable to confirm these claims with officials.

Another source told Breitbart Texas that the agent was ambushed on a trail and that a group of four or five illegal immigrants were later apprehended in the area. This source did not know if the illegal immigrants are connected to the shooting. Breitbart Texas was unable to obtain official confirmation of these details as well.

Prayers for a swift recovery, and that dude/dudette can be on my entry team ANY TIME. Starting your own tourniquet is hard core, but then banging in an IV? Kudos...

Any man that gets shot four times (regardless of armor penetration) who applies his own tourniquet and starts his own IV can drink from my canteen any day!

Some folks just seem to be made of sterner stuff...this agent living proof.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery. (And a speedy end for the wrongdoers.)
