A 40-year-old man is dead after he was shot by a border inspector with a stun gun at the busy border crossing of San Diego and Tijuana, Mexico, the Associated Press reports.
Police said the incident happened after a man leaped over a counter and attacked an inspector while being escorted for questioning at the San Ysidro port of entry.
The man, who was a wanted felon, was trying to enter the U.S. on foot.
Four CPB officers also were injured and treated at a local hospital.
Authorities said they weren’t able to resuscitate the man, who was pronounced dead at the scene.
His identity has not yet been released.
