An off-duty Border Patrol agent was shot in the face by an illegal alien during a robbery in New York City on Saturday evening.
The illegal entered the US in 2023 on Joe Biden’s open border invitation.
The agent miraculously survived and shot back at the illegal alien.
According to reports, two men on a moped approached the off-duty agent and his female friend while they were sitting next to the Hudson River in Fort Washington Park.
One suspect, Miguel Francisco Mora Nunez, an illegal alien from the Dominican Republic, fired shots at the off-duty agent, striking him in the face and arm.
The agent shot back multiple times and wounded Miguel Francisco Mora Nunez.
The Border Patrol agent underwent surgery and is expected to survive. The wounded illegal was taken into custody. The other suspect is still at large.

The federal agent is undergoing surgery and is expected to survive.
