A: Hey Hana, did you hear about something crazy happening in Oregon?
B: No, what’s up, Kenji? Something else?
A: Yeah! Apparently, two people got shot. Police are investigating.
B: Oh no! Who was involved?
A: It looks like US Border Patrol agents were involved. They said they were stopping a car.
B: A car? What for?
A: The person in the car wasn't legally in the country, they said. He’s from Venezuela. And apparently connected to a gang.
B: Wow, that's…a lot. So what happened then?
A: The driver tried to use the car to, like, attack them! So an agent fired a shot to protect himself.
B: Seriously?! It sounds intense.
A: Right? Then the car sped off. Later, the two people who were shot asked for help. They’re in the hospital now.
B: That's awful! It’s not the first time something like this has happened recently, right?
A: You’re so right! There was another shooting in Minnesota yesterday. An agent shot and killed someone there too.
B: Ugh, it’s just…a really difficult situation. It’s all over social media, I'm sure.
