Mexico demands probe in migrant killed by US agent

Mexico's Foreign Relations Department urged U.S. authorities to swiftly investigate and questioned the "use of firearms to repel an attack with stones."

O.K. we will no longer use guns! I propose a new method of deterrence,Catapults! loaded with rocks, boiling hot oil to set on fire when dumped over the extremely tall and well defended wall that must be built along the southern border to keep incidents like this from happening again!
And if the illegals are lucky enough to get past that then the border agents will be waiting with baseball bats with multiple spikes anchored in the business end, could be lethal could be not, it would depend on how much the jackass's decided to resist!

Mexican President Felipe Calderon on Wednesday condemned a Border Patrol agent's fatal shooting of a Mexican man who allegedly struck another agent with a nail-studded post. The union representing agents called the triggerman a hero.

The victim was shot once after he hit the agent in the head with the nail-studded piece of wood that was about 3 feet long and resembled a table leg, said San Diego police Lt. Ernie Herbert. He was about to throw a rock when the other agent fired.

The victim fell on the Mexican side of the fence near San Diego's San Ysidro border crossing, where he died Tuesday night, Herbert said.

Mexican authorities identified the victim as Jose Alfredo Yanez, 40, of Tijuana. Heriberto Garcia, the Baja California state human rights ombudsman, said Yanez worked at a towing company and had a young child with his 18-year-old girlfriend, who is five months' pregnant with their second child.

The Border patrol agents have family also, does that matter to any pos Illegal immigrant trying to sneak into America?
If this POS was worried about his family maybe he should not have been running away from them and attacking a border patrol officer in the process

No Border Patrol agents were seriously hurt.

Calderon wrote on Twitter that he discussed the killing with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at a meeting of regional leaders in Guatemala City.

"I demanded punishment for the guilty," he wrote.

the guilty were punished the little illegal pos was killed for his neglegent stupidity

Mexico's Foreign Relations Department urged U.S. authorities to swiftly investigate and questioned the "use of firearms to repel an attack with stones."

The union that represents Border Patrol agents defended the killing. Shawn Moran, a spokesman for the National Border Patrol Council, said the agent likely saved his colleague's life or spared him serious injury. The triggerman has been an agent for three years.

"The guy's a hero," said Moran. "He's a relatively junior agent, but he showed great poise in dealing with a really bad situation."
