CHULA VISTA, Calif. (AP) — Police say a Border Patrol agent fatally shot a woman in suburban San Diego while being driven on the hood of her car.

The Border Patrol released a statement that an agent fired a gun while conducting operations in Chula Vista. It did not elaborate.
The shooting occurred about five miles north of the Mexican border.
