shot and killed a man who was trying to enter the country from Mexico

The man was not shot for trespassing.
The man was shot for hurling large rocks and pieces of wood at a federal agent, striking one agent in the head with a thrown object.

At least they got the headline right.

A Border Patrol agent shot and killed a man who was trying to enter the country from Mexico Tuesday night during a fight that left another agent injured.

Other reports tell a different story. Three illegals were spotted going through a hole in the fence. Agents caught one who struggled while the other two ran back through the hole. Somebody climbed the fence and started throwing rocks at the BP agents while they were trying to cuff the third Mexican. That guy got shot. One of the BP agents went to the hospital, was treated and released.

Once again bad command of the English language tells a different story than what happened.

Give the shooter two cartons of cigarettes, a promotion, and a change of venue.
