A United States Border Patrol agent who was gunned down during a traffic stop in Vermont near the Canadian border was an Air Force veteran who worked at the Pentagon during 9/11, his family said in a statement following the shooting.
Agent David Maland, 44, who was killed on Monday, was a “devoted agent who served with honor and bravery,” his family said. “He had a tremendous respect and pride for the work he did; he truly embodied service over self.”
