Washington state woman, 21, arrested in fatal shooting of US Border Patrol agent

A Washington state woman was busted for fatally shooting a US Customs and Border Protection agent during a traffic stop in Vermont this week, federal authorities said Friday.

Teresa Youngblut, 21, allegedly opened fire at Border Patrol officer David Maland when he stopped her and a friend, Felix Baukholt, on Monday on Interstate 91 in Coventry, according to the FBI.

They were initially pulled over because Baukholt, a German national, appeared to have an expired visa — before gunfire broke out, authorities said.

The pair had been under surveillance for several days after an employee at a hotel reported seeing Youngblut carrying a gun and both of them wearing all-black tactical gear.

Maland and Baukholt were both shot and later succumbed to their injuries. Youngblut was charged with assault on a federal law enforcement officer.
