A woman has been arrested in connection with the fatal shooting of US Border Patrol agent earlier this week on a highway in Vermont, the FBI office in Albany said Friday.

A criminal complaint filed in federal court accuses Teresa Youngblut of assault as Agent David Maland's casket brought to Colonie for flight home to Minnesota.

Agent David “Chris” Maland died in a shooting following a traffic stop, the FBI said. A second person killed in the incident was a German national in the country on a current visa, authorities said.
