Authorities say two police officers were shot and killed in a Texas border town after responding to a domestic disturbance call.

Two police officers responding to a domestic disturbance call were shot and killed Saturday by a man who later fatally shot himself in a Texas border town, authorities said.

The officers first met with two people who reported assaults inside a nearby home on the south side of the city around 3:30 p.m. Saturday, Rodriguez said. But the shooter, whom police identified as 23-year-old Audon Ignacio Camarillo, opened fire when officers attempted to enter the home.“They were doing their job. That is what they were supposed to do. The person was a suspect of the incident, met our officers at the door, and shot at both officers,” Rodriguez said.

More details surrounding the domestic disturbance Garza and Chavez responded to were not immediately known. Rodriguez said the attack happened suddenly, and fellow police officers didn’t learn of the officers’ deaths until they arrived moments later.Rodriguez said he doesn’t expect his department to get over the deaths of the fellow officers anytime soon.

“Two of our finest were killed in the line of duty while working to protect residents in their community,” Abbott wrote on Twitter. “We unite to #BackTheBlue.”Texas Atty. Gen. Ken Paxton tweeted that his office would provide the McAllen Police Department with any help needed.
