Violence against Border Patrol agents continued to spiral with authorities reporting one agent held at gunpoint by an illegal immigrant in California, and two agents in Arizona facing attacks by hand.
California agents responded to two illegal immigrants detected crossing the border on foot. The first man was apprehended without problem, but the second, Hector Rodriguez-Chavez, aimed a loaded Star Echeverria pistol at the agent.
The agent and Rodriguez struggled for the gun, and even the help of two other agents was not enough to pry the weapon from Rodriguez's hand.
Finally, one agent used his taser, who dropped the pistol and stopped resisting.
Agents later found that he'd been deported back to Mexico at least five times, dating back more than 20 years [most recently in October 2017.] He also had convictions in the U.S. for violent drug crimes and firearms offenses.
"Our agents' vigilance prevented this dangerous person from illegally re-entering our communities," said Rodney S. Scott, chief agent for the Border Patrol.
The Arizona assaults happened Tuesday.
In one, agents were trying to arrest four illegal immigrants when 25-year-old Guatemalan man, threw dirt in an agent's face then swung his belt to use buckle as a weapon.
He was subdued and put into a vehicle, where he then spit in another agent's face.
Hours later another Guatemalan man was caught sneaking back in by an agent and his canine.
The 36-year-old man started striking the agent, but was eventually subdued. Authorities discovered he'd been deported just six months ago.
One agent was taken to the hospital for injury evaluation.
The assaults came after Sunday's violence at the border when Agents fired tear gas repelling the incursion-that's immigrant-rights advocates condemned saying those involved in the assault should have been welcomed and allowed to apply for asylum.

‘PROOF READ”? HELL, THEY CAN’T READ!
“Don’t they proof read?”
No; it’s the “new” journalism.
“God how I hate these m’fers.”
Yup.
Good reporting, right down to the gun manufacturer. /s

I would like to think at God’s table
but he’ll vote Dem, which is all that matters, so no wall ...
Where’s the video of this event happening? The video in the link is just detailing the various jobs border patrol does and the types of illegal activity they encounter. Nothing at all about this story.
“...I need a bit of clarification. Are you talking about the illegal aliens, the reporter who sucks at writing, or the editor who doesn’t know how to proofread?....”
LMAO. Originally, I meant the illegal alien trying to assault/kill the BP agent who’s been deported about a dozen times, but now that you mention it, ALL the above might not be a bad idea....LOL

Crap. My writing and proof-reading isn’t much better...LOL. Let’s try again: LMAO. Originally, I meant the illegal alien, who’s been deported about a dozen times, that assaulted and tried to kill the BP agent, but now that you mention it, ALL the above might not be a bad idea....LOL
immigrant-rights advocates
WTH does this have to do with immigrants?
Just shoot him down. Caught in the act of pulling a gun on an agent. He’s guilty. No trial necessary.
IIRC, Spitting is another charge of assault.
No they don't. I could make a killing proofreading for these idiots.
So let me get this straight - wetback illegally breaks into OUR Country and points a gun (Gee - I wonder if filled out an ATF 4473 for that handgun) at one of OUR people; the real question I have is - why is the piece of sh*t still breathing - and breathing AMERICAN air at that?
Now we get to pay for the assh*le while he’s in sitting in jail.
A 9mm through his face would have been much cheaper and completely justified.
Can you say “Sending a Message to the rest of them?”
Illegal immigrant Hector Rodriguez-Chavez, aimed a loaded Star Echeverria pistol at the agent. Luckily they were able to get the gun Gerido Rivera is this one of those poor immigrants just wanting a better life? Maybe you cold sponsor this person and put him up at your house
He pulls a gun why in the hell did they not just shoot his sorry ass?
So the invaders are ‘testing the fence for weaknesses’ the way the velociraptors did in Jurassic Park...to find out whether the Border agents will use deadly force, or do something SO ABSOLUTELY STUPID as to wrestle with an armed assailant for the gun and pepper spray, use a Tazer on them.
So now they know that they can overrun the Border agents.
