COVENTRY, Vermont — A suspect has been charged with ramming the vehicle of a Border Patrol agent in Vermont, about one month after U.S. Border Patrol agent David Maland was killed in Vermont during a traffic stop near the Canadian border.
The latest incident happened on Saturday to another agent working in the Swanton Sector, the same sector Maland had worked in, Border Patrol Chief Michael Banks said in a social media post on Tuesday.
No injuries were reported.
Maland, whose killing has been tied to a cultlike group, was buried on Saturday with full military honors at a national cemetery in Minnesota, The Associated Press reported. He was shot and killed on Interstate 91 on Jan. 20.
