The U.S. Customs and Border Protecting announced details on a stabbing incident at the border on Sunday, which led to a National Guardsman shooting the person stabbing other migrants.
After being shot, the stabbing suspect reportedly fled back to Mexico, and the two victims received medical attention for non-life threatening injuries, but did not need to be taken to the hospital.
News Nation correspondent Ali Bradley reported Monday morning:
#BREAKING An Indiana National Guard soldier deployed to Texas under Operation Lonestar shoots an illegal immigrant who stabbed two others with a knife in the Ysleta area of the El Paso sector—According to the internal bulletin obtained from DHS sources, the man ran back into Mexico.
The alert warns of increased violence and reminds Border Patrol agents to wear their body armor and remain vigilant.
The two individuals received non life-threatening injuries.
