Teresa Youngblut, 21, was accused for the death of agent David Maland, said the FBI, noting that Youngblut and Felix Baukholt, a German who lost his life during the shooting, were under surveillance for several days before The drama.
Agent Maland arrested Youngblut and Baukholt on Interstate 91 in Coventry because Baukholt seemed to have an expired visa, the FBI declaration said. During the arrest, Youngblut opened fire on Mr. Maland and other agents. Baukholt tried to draw a weapon, but was shot. At least one border agent shot Youngblut and Baukholt, but the authorities did not specify who was touched by which shot.

Investigators had been “periodic surveillance” of the couple since January 14, after an employee of a hotel where they stayed reported concerns after seeing Youngblut with a weapon and the two individuals with black tactical equipment. Investigators tried to question them, but the couple refused to maintain the conversation, simply declaring that they were in the region looking for a property.
-About two hours before the shooting, the investigators saw Baukholt leaving a Walmart in Newport with two packs of aluminum paper. According to an oath declaration, he was seen in the process of enveloping unidentifiable objects while he was sitting in the passenger seat.
The authorities then found a ballistic helmet, night vision glasses, respirators and ammunition in the car, as well as a packet of shooting targets, some of which are used. They also found bidirectional radios, a dozen electronic devices, travel information and accommodation for several states and what seemed to be a newspaper.
