A U.S. Border Patrol agent in Arizona fatally shot a person accused of stabbing him multiple times as he tried to make an arrest, officials said Tuesday morning.
The agent was assigned to the Tucson Sector of Arizona and was patrolling an area near Nogales on foot around 7 p.m. Monday when he “attempted to arrest a group of suspected illegal aliens,” said Roy D. Villareal, chief patrol agent for the U.S. Border Patrol’s Tucson Sector, in an early morning post on his Twitter.

The statement did not include any additional information about the attack, and a U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokesperson did not immediately respond to Fox News’ request seeking additional details.
The agent was taken to a local hospital for treatment of his injuries, though his condition was not immediately available.
The FBI and several other agencies are investigating.
