A Border Patrol agent was left bloodied and injured by a migrant smuggler earlier this month in Texas, sources told Fox News.
The incident occurred on Sept. 14, as agents were trying to make an arrest in Mercedes, Texas, located minutes from the U.S.-Mexico border, a spokesperson for U.S. Customs and Border Protection told Fox News Digital.
Law enforcement sources told Fox News the agent was assaulted by a migrant smuggler and that it took three agents to get him down. The agent fought with the migrant until backup arrived.
