David Maland, a U.S. Border Patrol agent and military veteran, was fatally shot during a traffic stop near the Canadian border in Vermont. A family statement describes him as a devoted agent who served honorably, indicating his deep commitment to his work. The incident, which involved violence resulting in the death of a German national, temporarily disrupted traffic on Interstate 91. Maland's service stretched back to his military days, including security duty at the Pentagon during the September 11 attacks, illustrating his dedication to protecting his country.
"He had a tremendous respect and pride for the work he did; he truly embodied service over self."
"He was a devoted agent who served with honor and bravery," a family statement said.
Agent David Maland was killed Monday afternoon following a traffic stop, a U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokesperson said.
Maland, whom the FBI confirmed was a U.S. Air Force veteran, was killed close to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection's Newport Station.
