DOUGLAS, AZ (KOLD) – A Border Patrol agent fatally shot a man just outside Douglas Monday morning.

An illegal immigrant was throwing rocks at an agent and his K9, a Border Patrol official said.

That’s when the agent opened fire.

Cochise County Sheriffs were called in when the shooting happened in an area known as ‘D Hill.’

A man received medical treatment after the shooting, according to a release sent by Cochise County Sheriffs.

Cochise county detectives and deputies have started a joint investigation with the FBI and the Border Patrol

    That is very sad. The patrol had a family and people who love him. My prayers go out to his family and his friends. It’s just a shame that had to happen.

    Mexico’s “deep concern” would be much better placed in cleaning up their own government so their people wouldn’t be risking their lives by the millions illegally running over here.
