Fallen Agent: ROBERT WIMER ROSAS
DOB: June 19, 1979
Entered: May 22, 2006
Departed: July 23, 2009
Postion: Border Patrol Agent

On July 23, 2009, Agent Rosas was shot and killed by unidentified assailants near Campo California, after responding to suspicious activity in a remote area notorious for alien and drug smuggling. Early reports indicate that Agent Rosas exited his vehicle approximately 18 miles east of the Tecate Port of Entry, near the Shockey Truck Trail, a short distance from the border. Agents working nearby heard gun shots and tried to contact Agent Rosas. When he did not respond, his fellow agents rushed to the area to locate him and found his body on the ground near his vehicle. Agent Robert Rosas began his career with the Border Patrol when he entered on duty May 22, 2006, as a member of the 621st Session of the Border Patrol Academy. He had been assigned to the Campo Border Patrol Station since his graduation from the Academy. Agent Rosas was 30 years old at the time of his death, and he leaves behind a wife and two children.
