CHULA VISTA - A U.S. Border Patrol agent opened fire on a suspected illegal immigrant near Otay Lakes today, but nobody was injured and the suspect remained at large, authorities said.
The agent, fearing for his life, fired one shot about 4:45 a.m. when the suspect picked up a rock and cocked back an arm as if to throw it at him, said Border Patrol Agent Wendi Lee.
Nobody was hurt and the suspect ran off, she said. The exact location of the incident was not immediately clear.
The alleged would-be rock thrower was one of eight suspected illegal immigrants the agent had spotted in the Otay Lakes area this morning, Lee said, adding that the seven other suspects were taken into custody for processing.
No further information was immediately released this morning.
