Dramatic Assault on Border Patrol Agent in Katy, Texas
What began as a routine checkpoint inspection on U.S. Highway 57 near Katy quickly spiraled into a dangerous confrontation. Kevin Dominguez, a 26-year-old Texas resident, pulled up in his sedan to the checkpoint, where a highly trained Border Patrol canine alerted agents to something suspicious in the trunk. Upon investigation, officers discovered a person hidden inside the vehicle.
Instead of cooperating, Dominguez made a desperate attempt to escape, reversing his car and striking a Border Patrol agent in the process. This reckless act ignited a high-speed chase, with aerial units tracking the fleeing vehicle. Eventually, two individuals were seen fleeing into an open field—one identified as an undocumented noncitizen from Honduras.
