On May 16, 2024, a U.S. Border Patrol agent tracking a group near Quemado, Texas, was attacked with a tree branch before firing one shot that struck a 34-year-old Mexican national in the leg. The released bodycam footage captures the shooting, emergency response, and the agent treating the man's gunshot wound before EMS arrived. This documentary examines the released Border Patrol bodycam footage, radio traffic, timeline, and official investigation into the May 2024 shooting near Eagle Pass, Texas. The encounter began when a Border Patrol agent tracking footprints through dense brush encountered a man he attempted to detain. After a struggle and a pursuit through the brush, the man allegedly attacked the agent with a tree branch. The agent then fired one round, striking him in the leg. The footage shows what happened immediately afterward, including the agent applying pressure to the wound, using clothing as an improvised dressing, and eventually applying a tourniquet while waiting for additional help and EMS. The incident was investigated by the FBI, Texas Department of Public Safety, the Department of Homeland Security Office of Inspector General, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection's Office of Professional Responsibility.
