An article that was printed in The News Gram on Tuesday, September 4 was incorrect by misidentifying a subject of a news article. Border Patrol agent Hector Nunez was incorrectly referenced in an incident that occurred in 2010 in which an 18 -year-old male adult identified as Juan Mendez Jr. was shot twice by a Border Patrol agent while he attempted to avoid detention.
Border Patrol agent Hector Nunez was not involved in this incident. Nunez was incorrectly named as the agent who had fired upon Mendez.
The News Gram would like to sincerely apologize to our readers and anyone directly affected by this misinformation.
