‘Elite’ Border Patrol agent credited with killing Texas school mass shooter | Washington Examiner
Border Patrol sources told Fox News correspondent Bill Melugin that the agent believed to have shot and killed the gunman was part of an “elite” tactical unit and had entered the school with a team while Texas law enforcement officials were engaged with the shooter.
“I m told that that BORTAC agent went in with his technical group with other agents. They formed a stacking maneuver while Texas law enforcement was engaged with the shooter, who was barricaded,” Melugin reported to Fox News host Tucker Carlson. “They came in from opposite sides. The BORTAC agent ended up exchanging gunfire with the shooter, killed the shooter, and I am told that the agent was injured in his leg. They are trying to figure out if he was shot in the leg or hit by shrapnel.”
