border guard killed in Yuma Arizona

US Yuma Arizona border guard killed by car speeding to Mexico



A US border guard was struck and killed Saturday while trying
to flag down two cars that were speeding toward the Mexican border
near Yuma, Arizona, said Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff.

"The agent was struck and killed while attempting to stop two vehicles
believed to have illegally entered the country and were absconding
back into Mexico," he told reporters.

"I have spoken to the Mexican ambassador (Arturo Sarukhan) who gives
me both his condolences and deep assurance that their government will
be resolute in tracking down the perpetrators, and bringing them
to swift justice," Chertoff added.

He said he would use "the full force of the law" in pursuing the
perpetrators of this "heinous act of violence."
