I would venture that the strong majority of crimes are reported that way. I agree there could be political underpinnings here - however, the sheriff of the county in question has generally been supportive of the border groups in the past.

As I understood it, law officers were on the scene immediately when they were called in. They saw the scenario and didn't arrest either of the border-patrol members. The complaint arose later, with an odor of barratry around it, and the local sheriff's office arrested the two individuals on representations made to the sheriff later.
