Daly,26,of Manchester,was stopped by the agent near Stewartstown and,as the agent questioned him about aliases,Daly fled in his car. He led the agent on a roughly 13-mile pursuit to the Pittsburg Port of entry,where,as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/fleeing-human-smuggler-drags-migrant-from-vehicle-near-border-in-texas\/\" title=\"Fleeing Human Smuggler Drags Migrant from ... near ... in Texas\">agent approached<\/a>,Daly attempted to turn away and promptly fired a handgun at the agent. The <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >agent returned fire<\/a>, Daly was wounded, and he was taken into custody and hospitalized. The FBI is handling the investigation,and the case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Alexander S.Chen. Daly faces up to 40 years in prison and up to $500,000 in fines if convicted on the two counts.The article notes that use-of-force incidents involving firearms are rare for Border Patrol agents on the U.S.\u2013Canada border and references a separate January 2025 incident in Vermont in wich a Border Patrol agent was killed.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">New Hampshire man charged with attempted murder of Border Patrol agent<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2515340\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>A <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/new-hampshire\">New Hampshire<\/a> man has been charged in federal court for the assault and attempted murder of a <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/border-patrol\">Border Patrol<\/a> agent stationed at the state&rsquo;s border with Canada, according to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/man-accused-of-slashing-woman-in-times-square-was-set-free-for-violent-robbery-just-three-days-earlier\/\" title=\"Man Accused Of Slashing Woman In Times Square Was Set Free For Violent Robbery Just Three Days Earlier\">criminal complaint reviewed<\/a> by the <em>Washington Examiner<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. Attorney&rsquo;s Office for the District of New Hampshire charged Blu Zeke Daly, also known as Cullan Zeke Daly, after he opened fire on a federal <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/police-and-law-enforcement\">law enforcement<\/a> agent at a remotely located border crossing in Pittsburg, NH.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/4469044\/savannah-guthrie-offers-reward-miracle-recovery-nancy-somebody-knows\/\">Savannah Guthrie offers $1 million for &#8216;miracle&#8217; recovery of missing mother: &#8216;Somebody knows&#8217;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/crime\/4468992\/sheriff-downplays-reports-suspect-approached-nancy-guthrie-home-before-kidnapping\/\">Sheriff downplays reports that suspect approached Nancy Guthrie&#8217;s home before her kidnapping<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/policy\/foreign-policy\/4468406\/charles-kushner-france-activist-death\/\">France bars US ambassador over failure to address death of right-wing activist<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>The complaint states that while on patrol near Stewartstown, NH, on Saturday evening, a Border Patrol agent encountered Daly, 26, alone in his car. During a conversation, the agent asked Daly, a Manchester resident, whether he went by any aliases other than those he had provided.<\/p>\n<p>Daly suddenly attempted to flee in his vehicle, and the agent pursued Daly at a distance. Daly drove roughly 13 miles along the U.S.-Canada border until he arrived early Sunday morning at the Pittsburg Port of Entry, which was closed to vehicles attempting to cross into Canada.<\/p>\n<p>The Border Patrol agent turned on his vehicle&rsquo;s emergency lights and stepped out of the vehicle to approach Daly when Daly began to turn away. Daly immediately fired a handgun at the agent.<\/p>\n<p>The agent returned fire and struck Daly, who was taken into custody and remains hospitalized.<\/p>\n<p>Given the Border Patrol&rsquo;s use of force, the FBI is handling the investigation into the shooting, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Alexander S.
