US border agent who gunned down Mexican teen won’t be charged
The U.S. agent who shot dead a Mexican teenager on the Arizona US-Mexico border in 2011 will not be charged because the fatal injury did not occur on American soil, the Justice Department has decided.
Ramses Barron was shot dead by a police patrol through a border fence in Nogales, Arizona, after he pelted officers with rocks.
A U.S. investigation claims that Barron paid no heed to commands in Spanish to stop throwing stones.
The Mexican government condemns the US’ use of lethal force on the border,which is currently under investigation
