“When officers went into the apartment, he was lying in bed with a rifle by his side and he started shooting at the officers,” McManus said. “The officers returned fire and exited the apartment. One of our officers was shot multiple times, and she is currently in the hospital.”
Now Fox News’ Bill Melugin is now reporting the suspect is a Venezuelan illegal immigrant who had been let free after being caught by Border Patrol:
Melugin’s tweet continued:
Per sources, San Antonio PD officers were responding to a domestic violence call just after 3am. When they made entry, 25-year-old Jorge Chacon-Gutierrez was laying in bed with a rifle, and opened fire on officers. The officers returned fire, then retreated. Chacon-Gutierrez is now dead, unclear if from return fire or suicide. Per sources, the SAPD officer was shot multiple times, had surgery this morning, and she is expected to survive.I’ve reached out to ICE for formal comment. More to come when I get it.

Chacon-Gutierrez is far from the only dangerous person who’s illegally crossed the border:

As Kamala Harris ratchets up her presidential campaign, she should be reminded every day of the Biden-Harris administration’s disastrous failure to protect our homeland. This is yet another on a growing list of tragic stories, although thankfully, the officer survived.
