Did not waste an opportunity to mention assault rifles.El Paso's chief of police, said the wound was caused by a "full metal jacket hard-nosed bullet" like those used in assault rifles.
She was struck at the same time Juarez police were battling alleged carjackers a few hundred feet from the U.S. border. Allen said reports indicate up to 50 shots were fired in that gunfight.
So, the "full metal jacket hard-nosed bullet" like those used in assault rifles could have come from one of the Mexican police officers.
The bullet was sent to the Texas Department of Public Safety for ballistic analysis, but Allen said it is unlikely the owner of the gun will be found.
Specially if it is one of the Mexican police officers who fired the gun.
