“Troopers were monitoring armed individuals on an island in the Rio Grande between the United States and Mexico,” according to media reports from ValleyCentral.com. “The Tamaulipas state police approached the armed individuals and a firefight ensued. The Texas state trooper was shot in the center pelvic area.”
The BP agent was shot in the chest, but was wearing a ballistic vest so was not seriously injured.

No word that I can find on whether these were stray rounds from the shootout or they were targeted.
