It’s one of the greatest fears of law enforcement: A suspect wrestles away your guy, points it at you and squeezes the triggers.
It happened Wednesday to a Border Patrol agent who was attacked by an immigrant near Encino, Texas, the Monitor reports.
Officials said the immigrant wrestled away the agent’s pistol and pointed it at him, but when the suspect pulled the trigger, the gun jammed.
After the attack, Border Patrol managed to detain eight people, including the attacker.
