The FBI has launched an investigation into a shooting incident outside a U.S. Coast Guard base in California’s San Francisco Bay Area, where Border Patrol officers were deployed for potential immigration enforcement operations.
The October 23 incident occurred at 10 p.m. local time when a driver reportedly reversed a vehicle toward security personnel stationed at the base. U.S. Border Patrol agents had been assigned to the location as part of heightened enforcement measures under former President Donald Trump’s policies targeting illegal immigration and crime.
While details remain limited, authorities confirmed no injuries were reported. The investigation focuses on the driver’s motives and whether the incident was linked to broader security concerns. The Coast Guard base, a critical facility for maritime operations, has not disclosed operational impacts.
This development highlights ongoing debates about immigration enforcement strategies and their intersection with public safety protocols in sensitive government installations.
