The California Border Patrol did confirm that a man was shot and killed by authorities after the stop at the checkpoint in which he then opened fire at 7 CBP agents.

San Diego Police Department said, “suspect began firing a gun out of his vehicle towards the officers, then exited his vehicle and continued firing at the officers.” The gun battle involved 15-30 shots.
