GILA BEND, Ariz. — Two Border Patrol agents rushing to help capture some suspected illegal immigrants were killed Thursday when their SUV entered a marked railroad crossing and was struck by a freight train.

The agents — Eduardo Rojas Jr. and Hector Clark — were trying to position themselves on a road north of some other agents who were chasing a group of suspected illegal immigrants, said agent Kenneth Quillin, spokesman for the Border Patrol’s Yuma sector.
