Mexican National Indicted for Firing Shots at Border Patrol Agents

From KGBT4.com:

A Mexican man has been indicted in Laredo for shooting at a Border Patrol agent in an immigrant smuggling chase near the Rio Grande.

Federal court documents show that said Bernardo Javier Gutierrez was one of three men involved in the Sept. 13 incident.

Prosecutors said the 25-year-old illegal immigrant from Mexico was indicted in Laredo for:

* Assaulting a United States Border Patrol agent with a deadly weapon
* Illegally possessing a firearm and ammunition
* Discharging a firearm while in the commission of a violent offense

Prosecutors said two Border Patrol agents responded to a report of illegal aliens crossing the outside Laredo near Rio Bravo, Texas.

As the two agents walked towards a black Ford F-150 at the intersection of Tulipan and Centeno Streets, a man later identified as Gutierrez began shooting at them from the back of the truck.

The agents took cover and one them returned fire as the truck sped away.

Other Border Patrol agents in the area stopped the truck off Highway 83 but learned that Gutierrez had fled on foot.

Gutierrez was located and arrested by investigating agents near his home in Rio Bravo after a foot chase.

Agents recovered a 9 mm semi-automatic pistol wrapped in cloth in an outdoor chimney of a nearby house.

I’ve been told this is a fairly common occurrence in the border states were human traffickers and drug gangs have imported the culture of lawlessness that characterizes the Mexico’s cartel controlled northern region.

  1. America dose not belong to its Citizens. There is not one good reason to worrie about its Borders. The Government has the capibality to do as it chooses. Citizens only duty is to do what they are told or else. Citizens cannot defend them selfs for fear of funds extraction by the system of Opression, let alone defend a border of the country. The courts control America and soon the world.

    Carry your papers of identification or else. “CORPORACRACY” will see that there are handouts for the poor. Americas in California are so blinded by “SOCIALISM” all have long ago decided “self supporting citizens is taboo”.
