Border Patrol Update
It looks like Border Patrol agents opened fire on each other last week in an incident that took the life of one agent. The FBI said, based on preliminary evidence, it seems Nicholas Ivie died in an accidental shooting. Ivie and two other agents were responding to an alarm. It had been triggered by a sensor aimed at spotting people entering the United States illegally. The head of the Border Patrol agents' union said it appeared Ivie opened fire on two colleagues, thinking they were armed smugglers. They returned fire. One of the agents was wounded but has left the hospital. The other was not harmed.

Something does not sound right with this one. I dont know what it is but this stinks. What are the names of the agents who fired first?? I hope an exstensive internal is done by an outside agency.
