A man from Katy, Texas,
has been sentenced to 18 months in federal
prison after being convicted
of assaulting a U.S. Border Patrol agent.
According to court documents, 26‑year‑old Kevin Dominguez
drove his sedan to a Border Patrol
checkpoint on U.S.
Highway 57 on August 1, 2023.
During his approach,
a trained USBP canine alerted
agents to movement in his trunk,
where an individual was discovered.
Instead of stopping,
Dominguez reversed
and struck an agent
with his vehicle before
fleeing the scene.
