U.S. Border Patrol agent David "Chris" Maland was killed on duty last week in Coventry on Interstate 91 southbound during a traffic stop.

The US Border Patrol agent murdered during a traffic stop with a migrant in Vermont was an Air Force veteran who survived the 9/11 attack on the Pentagon, his family said. David “Chris” Maland, 44, died Monday afternoon after a shootout with a German national on Interstate 91 about 20 miles from the Canadian border,

Governor Phil Scott identified David Maland as the fallen officer, extending his “heartfelt condolences to Agent Maland’s family, friends, and colleagues."
