Native American family demands answers after fatal Border Patrol shooting

TL;DR Summary
The family of Raymond Mattia, a Native American man killed by Border Patrol agents near the Arizona-Mexico border, is demanding answers about the incident. A relative of Mattia claims he had contacted the Border Patrol earlier in the evening to ask for help with undocumented migrants who had entered his home. However, the official statement from Customs and Border Protection makes no mention of this call. The family has not been interviewed by law enforcement agencies investigating the shooting, and they were not allowed to approach Mattia's body for hours. The incident may further corrode trust between the Border Patrol and the Tohono O’odham Nation.
