Arizona border patrol killed 10-18 miles north of border trying to protect illegals from bandits in desert
- T.J. Bonner, president of the National Border Patrol Council, said Brian A. Terry was operating as part of a tactical unit conducting surveillance for bandits when they encountered a group of five people and a gunfight broke out.
"They had received information about bandit activity in that area," Bonner said. "It's an area that is notorious for that, despite the fact it is so far from the border. I think it was about 18 miles from the border."...
- Bonner said "border bandits" typically prey on illegal immigrants in the area, accosting them with guns and stealing whatever money or possessions they have.
"The border is not secure," Bonner said. "Those who say that it's secure are either misinformed or they're being disingenuous. If you have bandits operating that far north into the United States and there's enough activity to sustain that (criminal enterprise), it tells you
- there's a lot of traffic getting by the Border Patrol."...
- "Terry, (age 40), a native of Detroit had served 3 1/2 years in the Border Patrol and four years in the military, Bonner said."...
