on the Mexico side of the Arizona-Mexico border during the incident.\

\b \cf2 "if the officer feels that he is in a position that he can't retreat and get to
a safe place and it's -- for lack of a better word -- pinned in an area and that's his only
alternative to defend himself or anyone else that's being threatened by the rocks."
\b0 \ \
And the Associated Press reports Mexico\'92s Foreign Relations Department issued a statement
saying it, quote, \'93forcefully condemned\'94 the shooting and called the death \'93a serious
bilateral problem.\'94 An investigation is currently underway.\
