Earlier in the morning — before 7 a.m. — Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos said, Border Patrol agents had spotted a vehicle with multiple people inside.

Later, the Border Patrol agent recognized what he believed to be that vehicle and conducted a traffic stop, Nanos said.

The driver — who was now the only person inside — got out and ran away, and the agent gave chase on foot, the sheriff said.

A spokesperson for the sheriff's department said by email that Schlegel shot at agents on the ground.

The Pima County Sheriff's Department is investigating the use of force by the Border Patrol agent.

The shooting comes three days after Border Patrol fatally shot Alex Pretti in Minneapolis and weeks after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer shot and killed Renee Good in Minneapolis.

Federal immigration officers have shot 12 people since September as DHS has ramped up deportation operations around the country. »
