A U.S. Border Patrol agent shot and killed a 14-year-old boy after a confrontation at an international bridge near downtown El Paso, Mexican authorities said Tuesday.
The child's mother.
According to the NPR News piece, the union rep for Border Patrol agents says it is alright for agents to shoot Mexican children who throw rocks at them.
Wrong! It is never 'alright' to shoot a child for throwing rocks at you.
And get this ...
The child's body was found on the Ciudad Juarez side of the fence.
By all accounts, he never crossed over on to the US side, and was not attempting to do so.
He was unarmed, and he was shot in the head.
Sergio Adrian Hernández was his name.
