A Mexican national admitted Wednesday that he and two other gunman were involved in the 2009 murder of a U.S. Border Patrol agent in southern California, CNN reports.
Marcos Rodriguez-Perez pleaded guilty to conspiracy, robbery and firearm charges, saying he and two others detained Border Patrol Agent Robert Rosas Jr. at gunpoint.
The reason – they wanted his night-vision goggles.
Rosas was shot multiple times as he struggled, according to the plea agreement.
The suspects fled to Mexico with the agent’s bag, firearm, handcuffs, and goggles. CNN wrote.
