Shooter Identified in McAllen Border Patrol Annex Attack

News summary

On Monday morning in McAllen, Texas, 27-year-old Michigan resident Ryan Louis Mosqueda, wearing tactical gear and armed with an assault rifle, ambushed a U.S. Border Patrol annex facility. He injured a Border Patrol officer, a Border Patrol employee, and a McAllen police officer, all of whom were hospitalized in non-critical condition. Mosqueda fired dozens of rounds before being shot and killed by law enforcement within minutes, potentially averting further casualties. Authorities recovered additional weapons and equipment from his vehicle, which had spray-painted references to the 'Cordis Die' antagonist from the 'Call of Duty' video game. Mosqueda, who had a reported mental deficiency and no known criminal record, had been reported missing by his father hours before the attack. The FBI is leading the investigation, the motive remains unclear, and officials say there is no ongoing threat to the community.
