CBS Las VegasTUCSON, Ariz. (CBS Las Vegas) — Border Patrol agents in Arizona were reportedly fired upon by a Mexican military helicopter that traveled across the border.
KVOA-TV reports that Mexican authorities were conducting a drug interdiction operation when the incident happened early Thursday morning on the Tohono O’odham Indian Nation. The Mexican chopper fired at the agents and then flew back into Mexico.
Art del Cueto, Border Patrol Tucson Sector union president, tells KVOA that they called and apologized for the incident.
“The incident occurred after midnight and before 6 a.m. Helicopter flew into the U.S. and fired on two U.S. Border Patrol agents,” del Cueto said in a statement to KVOA. “The incident occurred west of the San Miguel Gate on the Tohono O’odham Indian Nation. The agents were unharmed. The helicopter went back into Mexico. Mexico then contacted U.S. authorities and apologized for the incident.”
Andy Adame, Border Patrol spokesperson, said that Mexican authorities fired two shots at the border agents.
“Two shots were fired from the helicopter but no injuries or damage to U.S. property were reported,” Adame told KVOA.
The incident is under investigation.
Why didn’t they shoot the chopper down, then we could call mexico and apologize for that incident. Bet they would quit coming across our border if we shoot them.
Troops cross the border and now a helicopter comes over and shoots at border patrol? Damn right we should have shot it down. I believe that that is an act of war. Mexico, don’t get to bold, you might get your asses kicked AGAIN!
Just start shooting these fly backs!
No kidding. What the hell is wrong with our people? Grow some balls and fire back! THIS IS WAR!
WHY THE HELL ARE WE NOT BOMBING THE SHIT OUT OF MEXICO??!!!
They let illegal immigrants invade our country, they have drug cartels running around shooting at us, they have Mexican military shooting at us and then they apologize? Yet, one simple act like this in Syria or the Middle East and Barry and company are all ready to bomb the shit out of them!
WTF??!!!
THIS IS AN ACT OF WAR!!!
When are we going to go to war with Mexico? You know, the country that we should actually be going to war with and not some stupid Middle Eastern country for Zionist Israel.
Perhaps Obama gave the Border Patrol Agents a stand-down order?
America is being torn apart before all our very eyes and almost no one is doing a thing.
This invasion was well planned by the khazar ‘jews’ to destroy america once and for all in a racial civil war.
“Once we squeeze all we can out of the United States, it can dry up and blow away.” — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, 2002.
These khazar ‘jews’ have ruined humanity and the planet.
Will there ever be any real retribution?
