(Reuters) - U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers fatally shot an American man who pulled out a gun and started shooting while attempting to drive through the border crossing between Tijuana and San Diego late Monday, NBC reported.

The 23-year-old man was driving from the Mexican side of the border when he refused to stop his truck for inspection at the San Ysidro port of entry. He instead began shooting at CBP officers through his truck's window, NBC reported, citing both CBP and the San Diego Police Department.
