Saturday, a North Texas police officer
0:29
was ambushed at a DHS facility and shot
0:32
in the neck by eight men in body armor.
0:34

rise in threats to immigration and
0:38
custom enforcement, IC personnel, and
0:41
border patrol agents over President

0:53
who was armed with a rifle and wearing a
0:56
utility vest. Mosqueda was killed at the

scene. Macallen Police Chief Victor
1:01
Rodriguez said, "US Department of
1:04
Homeland Security in a statement on its
1:06
exocial media handle stated that this
1:10
morning an individual opened fire at the
1:12
entrance of the United States Border
1:14
Patrol sector annex in Macallen, Texas.
1:17
Both Border Patrol agents and local
1:20
police helped neutralize the shooter.
1:22
Two officers and a Border Patrol
1:24
employee were injured, including one
1:26
shot in the knee. All three have gone to
1:29
the hospital. This is an ongoing
1:31
investigation led by the FBI. While
1:34
blaming politicians for the continuous
1:36
attacks on security operatives, the US
1:39
Homeland Security Department said this
1:41
administration is not playing games with
1:44
the lives and safety of our offices. IC
1:48
law enforcement is facing a 700%
1:51
increase in assaults against them due to
1:53
rhetoric from politicians like Mayor
1:55
Bass. Secretary Gnome's message is
1:58
clear. If you lay a hand on a law
2:00
enforcement officer, you will be
2:02
prosecuted to the fullest extent of the
2:04
law. The suspect never made it inside
2:07
the building but fired many, many rounds
2:09
at the building, Rodriguez said.
2:12
Mosqueda has a Michigan address and
2:14
arrived in a car with additional weapons
2:16
and ammunition inside. The police added
2:19
Macallen police responded to the scene
2:22
shortly before 6 a.m. m where the
2:24
shooter attacked the federal building
2:26
with an assault rifle at about 5:45
2:30
a.m. M. According to local media and
2:32
residents, local media added that Ismael
2:36
Garcia, a 10-year veteran with the
2:38
Macallen police who responded to the
2:40
scene, was struck in the knee during the
2:42
shootout and is in recovery, quoting
2:44
Chief Rodriguez, who said it during a
2:46
news conference. Three officers
2:49
sustained gunshots injuries from inside
2:51
the building as bullets shattered the
2:53
windows, sending shards of glass flying.
2:56
According to local media, "Incidents
2:58
like these make us realize that we've to
3:01
always be on guard to keep our community
3:03
safe," Rodriguez said, adding that the
3:06
officers and a border patrol employee
3:08
who were injured, including the officer
3:10
who was shot in the knee are expected to
3:13
recover. It was gathered that law
3:15
enforcement officers at the scene found
3:17
additional assault weapons and
3:19
ammunition in the vehicle, and spray
3:21
painted writing was found on the side of
3:23
the vehicle. Police is yet to provide
3:26
further details of the lettering and
3:27
stated that it's unknown if it's
3:29
connected to the attack. Mosqua is
3:32
believed to have some ties to the
3:33
community as he was reported missing
3:36
from a Weslo address approximately 18 mi
3:39
east of Macallen at 4:00 a.m. However,
3:43
Rodriguez could not disclose the nature
3:45
of those ties. Rodriguez said a motive
3:48
for the attack remains unknown and
3:49
declined to call the attack an act of
3:51
terrorism, saying not enough information
3:54
is available. However, the FBI will now
3:57
lead the investigation as the incident
3:59
involved an attack on federal offices
4:02
and a federal building. Flights at the
4:04
nearby Mallen International Airport were
4:07
delayed for several hours as law
4:08
enforcement secured the area. US
4:12
President Donald Trump, a Republican,
4:14
has made combating illegal immigration a
4:17
top priority, sending troops to secure
4:19
the US Mexico border and launching
4:22
aggressive raids in US cities, which led
4:24
to widespread protests by Americans
4:26
against the White House policy. The
4:29
anti-illegal immigrant policy supported
4:31
by Trump's hardline Republican base have
4:34
also led to push back from Americans
4:36
concerned about arrests of noncriminals
4:38
and enforcement tactics that include
4:40
officers wearing masks to hide their
4:42
identities. Images from the scene showed
4:46
cordis a Latin phrase meaning hard day
4:49
written on the driver's door of the
4:51
white two-door car. Cordis die is also a
4:55
fictional populist revolutionary
4:57
movement in the Call of Duty Black
5:00
Operations 2 video game according to fan
5:03
websites as reported by Reuters. Reuters
5:06
also reported that Mosqueta's father was
5:08
stopped for a traffic infraction at 348A
5:12
m in Weslo and told police he was
5:14
searching for his son. According to a
5:16
report by local Telmundo station T40,
5:19
citing Weslo police, adding Mosca's
5:23
father, Jose Mosqueta told an officer
5:26
his son had a mental deficiency, had not
5:29
taken any medication, and was carrying
5:31
firearms in his vehicle. According to
5:33
the T40 report, police identified the
5:37
license plate of Ryan Mosqueda's vehicle
5:39
and alerted authorities. The report said
5:42
Wesler police did not respond to a
5:45
request for comment and it was not
5:46
immediately possible to contact Joseé
5:49
Mosqueda. The facility where the
5:51
shooting took place houses Border
5:53
Patrol's special operations teams.
5:55

5:58
Border Protection official, flights at
6:00
the nearby Macallen International
6:02

6:04
