Former President Donald Trump and running mate Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, recently met with the family of Nicholas Douglas Quets, a 31-year-old U.S. Marine veteran who tragically lost his life in a shooting incident along the Caborca-Altar Highway in northern Mexico on Oct. 19.
Quets, who worked on water reclamation projects in Pima County, Arizona, was on a trip to Rocky Point with friends when the incident occurred, approximately 30 miles south of the U.S.-Mexico border. The Sonora Attorney General's Office reported that suspects believed to be cartel members carried out a direct attack on Quets' pick-up truck, resulting in his untimely death.
