Woman arrested in fatal Vermont shooting of Border Patrol agent from Minnesota [View all]

BURLINGTON, Vt. — The FBI says an arrest has been made in connection to the fatal shooting death of a U.S. Border Patrol agent who was from Minnesota.

On Friday, FBI Albany announced a 21-year-old woman from Washington state, Teresa Youngblut, was arrested in David "Chris" Maland's death in Vermont.

The U.S. Attorney's Office in Vermont has since charged Youngblut with assault on a federal law enforcement officer.

"Our hearts remain with our partners at U.S. Border Patrol Swanton Sector as they mourn this tremendous loss," the FBI said.

Maland, who was born in Blue Earth, Minnesota, was killed Monday afternoon following a traffic stop, a U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokesperson said in a statement.

According to court documents, Youngblut was driving a vehicle with a German national as the passenger when the U.S. Border Patrol stopped them for an immigration inspection. The citizen of Germany, identified as Felix Baukholt, appeared to have an expired visa in a Department of Homeland Security database.
