This Monday, July 7, 2025, a gunman identified as Ryan Louis Mosqueda, 27, stormed the Border Patrol facility in McAllen, Texas, and opened fire with a long gun. The attack occurred shortly before 6:00 a.m. and triggered an immediate law enforcement response, which culminated in the attacker’s death at the scene. <\/p>\n

The incident, described as “extremely dangerous,” left no federal agents injured. However, a McAllen Police Department officer, Ismael Garcia, was wounded in the knee and was transported to a local hospital. According to official sources, his condition is stable. <\/p>\n

Authorities identified the assailant as Ryan Louis Mosqueda.<\/p>\n

Although his most recent address placed him in the state of Michigan, he was also linked to a residence in Weslaco, Texas.<\/p>\n

Authorities are still investigating his motives, as no links to criminal or terrorist organizations have been confirmed so far.<\/p>\n

During the inspection of his vehicle, police found several additional weapons.<\/p>\n

Among them another assault rifle, suggesting a possible intent to cause further damage to Border Patrol facilities.<\/p>\n

Increased security and affected flights<\/h2>\n

Due to the proximity of the Border Patrol headquarters to the McAllen International Airport(MFE<\/a>), authorities decided to delay all flights as a precautionary security measure.<\/p>\n

This decision affected hundreds of passengers, although flights were gradually resumed during the afternoon of the same Monday.<\/p>\n

FBI takes over the investigation<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

The case is being investigated directly by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).<\/p>\n

At a press conference, McAllen Police spokesman John Saenz said the scene remains secured.<\/p>\n

More findings are not ruled out in the coming hours, without going into specific details at this time.<\/p>\n

This incident underscores the need to reinforce security at federal facilities, especially at the southern border, where immigration activities, federal operations and air traffic converge.<\/p>\n
