    Reports: Off-duty Border Patrol agent shot, killed in Willacy County

    SOUTHEAST WILLACY COUNTY — An off-duty Border Patrol agent was shot and killed Sunday night while on a fishing trip with his family, a Border Patrol spokesman said Sunday.

    "Some bad guys" shot the agent during a robbery "north of Harlingen," said the spokesman, Agent Omar Zamora.

    Willacy County Sheriff's deputies investigated a shooting homicide starting at about 8 p.m. Sunday, Sheriff Larry Spence confirmed.

    Although Spence could not say for sure the victim was a Border Patrol agent, he said it was likely.

    “It’s probably one and the same,” he said.

    The sheriff said the crime was similar to recent others in Cameron County, though this was the first in Willacy.

    "Another one of these typical robbery things,” he said. "People fishing, people drive by, turn around, come back, pull weapons and rob them.”

    "In this case, someone got shot."

    Just past midnight Monday, investigators were still looking for the exact crime scene, Spence said, though they were optimistic they had found it in the southeastern quadrant of the county. If so, investigators would stay in the area until the new dawn allowed them to work.

    "If this is the scene, we're just going to babysit it until daylight," Spence said.

    No suspects were in custody as of about 12:30 a.m. Monday.

    The victim's name has not been released. Another man, perhaps the victim's father, was also wounded in the shooting, Spence said.

    Check back for updates on Monday.

    WILLACY COUNTY - An off-duty Border Patrol agent was shot and killed while fishing with his family. Two suspects are in custody.

    Border Patrol spokesman Omar Zamora told CHANNEL 5 NEWS the agent was shot in the chest Sunday night after an attempted robbery.

    According to Zamora, the gunmen saw the agent had a gun in his holster and opened fire.


    Willacy County Sheriff Larry Spence said another person was also injured in the shooting. That person was identified as one of the Border Patrol agent's relatives. Both victims were driven to the hospital in personal vehicles.


    Border Patrol agents and DPS troopers assisted with the investigation. Spence said authorities are still looking for the crime scene, but they suspect it happened near Santa Monica.


    Family members with the agent gave authorities a description of the suspects' vehicle. Authorities found the vehicle on FM 2629, close to the floodway. We're told no one was inside. Investigators searched the area and found the two suspects on foot. They were arrested close to the county line, near Sebastian.
