They artfully side-step the question of how he died. So he must have been killed by the illegal aliens. Only the liberal media could leave out that little detail.

Authorities said Cabral and his partner were tracking a group of suspected illegal aliens north of Interstate 8 near Jacumba when they separated. They then lost radio contact, and another agent found Cabral unresponsive near the De Anza Springs Resort, the news release stated. Cabral was taken by air to a local hospital, but medical personnel were unable to revive him. "Unresponsive" as in shot? Knifed? Overcome by the heat? What lousy reporting.

Unless I missed something, the article doesn't explain how he died. I wonder if he was shot.
The news was all over it when a border patrol agent shot a drug smuggler in the butt, but they don't explain how this agent died!
I send my sympathy to his family.

or if there were enough officers - they have to split up and there is no one to help if they get into trouble.

It list the cause of death as heat exhaustion.
Likely he was dehydrated became disoriented then passed out and by the time he was found his brain was cooked.
