Border Patrol Snuffs Another Dealer. Ahhhh, Too Bad.
A suspected drug smuggler was shot to death during a confrontation with Border Patrol agents Tuesday night south of Tucson, officials said.
The shooting occurred about 8 p.m. about 20 miles west of Interstate 19 near the Aliso Springs area south of Tubac. Agents from the Tucson Sector encountered four men backpacking in the desert, said Santa Cruz County Sheriff Tony Estrada.
The dead man had a rifle, and one of the arrestees had a handgun, he said. Border Patrol agents also seized four bundles of marijuana.
But, but, he was just a poor immigrant trying to feed his family.
